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).

Lot's of interpretations. It get's confusing.

I think this would only apply when you are continuing to the reverse 2/4 point i.e. all 4 points should be of equal duration, centered, and (preferably ) with equal lines flown before and after.

Even with the 2/4 in the stall turn it doesn't apply as the 2/4 should be centered in the up-line between the base line and the stall point. It doesn't say anything about the line between the 2nd point and the stall turn being the same duration as the line between the 1st and 2nd point roll (is this correct?? . . or am I confused tooooo [sm=confused_smile.gif]).

It appears that myself and everyone I have seen, is flying it as Glen described . . pushing immediately to the half loop as the wings draw level.
