3.7.1. Maneuver Description . The Repositioning Turn uses both horizontal and vertical turning
room to change direction at each end of the show line. The vertical plane is used to maintain necessary
proximity to the demonstration area. Each turn may differ slightly in order to meet entry TARGET
PARAMETERS for the next maneuver and attain the proper show line alignment. To begin the
maneuver, turn 15 to 45 degrees away from the crowd (depending on environmental conditions), rollout,
and pull to 45 degrees nose high, and then unload. At 1,000 feet minimum, execute a 270-degree
aileron roll opposite the show line. Visually acquire the show line and make a descending turn to meet
the entry TARGET PARAMETERS for the next maneuver.
3.7.2. Abnormal Procedure: If at any time the minimum altitude, airspeed, or climb angles, cannot
be achieved or maintained, roll the aircraft to the nearest horizon and recover to wings level flight.
