Not necessarily. Visualize that I begin my turn over a field where
the air is rising slightly. The rest of my turn is over another area

the rising column yet I manage to hit my own wake because it was held
in place.


Since these would be very unusual circumstances, they cannot substantiate the
claim that pilots routinely meet their own wakes in 360-degree turns.


Yes, these would be very unusual circumstances in the Microsoft
Flight Simulator game.
