That's one of the coolest "features" of the kind of flying we do. Now you're not only just flying your "sight picture" or "paint", now your adjusting it slowly throughout the maneuver just to make it look like your maintaining the same position. I love it.

To add on to the slot position, No. 4 in a lot of cases requires the most skill if you think about it. No. 4 not only flies slot, but right fingertip, third trail, offset right wing in the FCL and outer left line abreast in the LBL. Yikes!

We're halfway through four consecutive days of rehearsal sorties. That's usually when we find our groove.
