I suppose I haven't been around aerobatics and the competition scene long enough to be overly critical.... BUT one of the greatest attractions of competitive aerobatics is that it forces me to advance my skills. Of course I take dual training when learning a new maneuver before attempting to practice and perfect it on my own. As for the humpty bump, I found that once I figured out the rudder useage to compensate for gyroscopic effect it is easier to fly than a hammerhead (and what a fabulous maneuver for clearly demonstrating gyroscopic effect). I'm not sure why an aircraft capable of a hammerhead wouldn't be capable of a positive humpty.
Hey, are you going to contribute any more aerobatic articles to COPA Flight?? Hope so !
Cheers,
Cary Rodin
