Default barrel roll in 172

There is no such thing as a competition barrel roll.


The only aerobatics competition I've flown was in radio
control airplanes in the 1970's. It was pretty informal,
but we flew BR's and were judged on them.


Of course you can do competitions any way you want and judge whatever
you like. (And barrel rolls are beautiful to watch.) In this respect, I
should have written "not an FAI competition figure".

BTW, where I live and fly, this year's known programme for the beginners
class in glider aerobatics contains a wing over. Not an FAI figure
either. No problem, at the briefing, the chief judge will explain what
he thinks a wing over should look like, and then it will be judged
according to his guide lines.
