nose, half mile"
h.

i.

solution

the aircraft loaded up and buries the nose below the
horizon while executing a displacement roll.
a.
Bandit may reverse anytime during exercise; when this
happens, engaged fighter will call the reverse
b.
Reversal with free fighter in high cover
(1) Engaged fighter calls bandit reversal--for example,
