If, as suggested, the first outside loop should be commenced immediately after the wings are level, then the descrition of the manoeuvre is extremely misleading.

A much less confusing description would be, Knife Edge first, Full Roll second. [No reason why the duration of the Knife Edge and the Full Roll should not be stated as being equal].

In the minds of many pilots, a 2/4 roll is not complete until the inverted section of the roll (Point 2), is flown for a duration equalling the duration of the Knife Edge Section (Point 1). For example, if a manoeuvre was described as "2/4 Roll with 1/2 Roll Opposite" , would any pilot dream of starting the 1/2 Roll opposite just as soon as the model became inverted? I think not.

I respect the opinions of experienced Judges, but I also understand why so much confusion has been caused!
