       Reiner, you will enjoy this last one.

       Perhaps you can translate it and send me the text
       and I will find someone to narrate it in English.

   Paul,

   I noticed the following:

   Did you post it?

   It says it's a snap roll.  Is that right?  Technically a snap roll
   involves stalling the wing (yanking the stick back) and then forcing the
   airplane to rotate with rudder.  Like a spin, but along a horizontal
   axis.

   Here's a snap roll:

   Note how the airplane pitches up dramatically.


   The video of Dave's airplane seems to show a normal 1g aileron roll..
   Is Dave on here?  Maybe he can correct me.


   Matt-

   Yes you are right. I need to change it.  I know nothing about
   aerobatics and don't want to know. It makes me sicker than a dog :)

Matt, You are right.  I have been meaning to correct Paul but never
bothered.

I do snap rolls in my RV, but wouldn't try it close to the ground.
Also, in the RV, snap rolls require a much slower entry speed.
