BALANCED FORMATION (FINGERTIP)
TURN INTO SECTION
b.
Turns into section [VFR] 3.7.1.2.2.1.1
(1) Second section: act as one aircraft, rotating about leads
axis (same as turn into wingman)
(2) Dash-2: rotate about own axis
C. Common errors by Dash-3 during balanced parade
1.
During balancing formation (section crossunder)
a.
Problem: Dash-4 lags behind because Dash-3 executes
crossunder too rapidly
Correction: Dash-3 must be slow/judicious so Dash-4 can
arrive in correct parade position
2.
During balanced parade turns: errors are similar to section except
that they are magnified due to Dash-4 flying on Dash-3 instead of
on lead
