Salad Dodger, please explain to me how the desire to have someone's name spelled correctly is in any way or ?

Or too slow a speed to achieve a top height. The point here is surely designing a display with enough margin in it to forgive the odd error or variation without disastrous consequences. An obvious point in hindsight.

good post - problem is people don't learn - the Jogya accident is a case in point - you have to ensure you have enough height .......

Not quite true...... I have a friend who was displaying a current mil FJ at a very prominent UK airshow a few years ago - over the top of a looping manoeuver he had just the right amount of gate height (as per his display design) but a significant excess of speed. End result was he nearly spread himself very publicly across the runway at the bottom.

You have to have the correct amount of energy, both potential & kinetic.

I guess it might be seen as that if you were a member of a victim's family waiting to find out why you lost your loved one.

If we could get this put into bold and flashing lights, please. *two thumbs up*

Agree.
But no one so far I know on the various threads have commented on what the correct ranges of potential and kinetic energies should be for a hunter....or in more usual terms: what are the numbers for the gate at the top of 1/4 clover?
From the information published by the AAIB, was the gate made?

More fundamentally, I'm still interested to know whether the terms of his display permit allowed him to start his vertical manoeuvre at 200ft? Any discussion of this earlier in the thread was quashed by peer pressure.

Is this not sub-judice?

It is now, and probably has been since he was charged.

The trial has opened. BBC report here
