3.15.1. Maneuver Description. After completion of the Jink-Out maneuver and level at 500 feet,
initiate a turn toward the 500-foot show line and begin slowing the aircraft below 200 knots with full
speed brakes. Upon reaching the base position for the 500-foot show line and below 200 knots, configure
the aircraft with gear, full flaps, 40% speed brakes and begin a descent down to 300 feet AGL.
Continue slowing the aircraft to 120 knots (110 knots minimum) while flying down the 500-foot show
line. When passing the last of the crowd, select max power, close the speed brakes, and bring the flaps
to seven degrees while smoothly raising the nose to a 25 to 35-degree climb. While climbing, turn 30
to 45 degrees away from the crowd using 30 degrees of bank (45 degrees maximum). During this
climbing turn, raise the gear.
3.15.2. Abnormal Procedures: If the minimum altitude or airspeed cannot be maintained, or the aircraft
stalls, abort the maneuver by selecting max power, closing the speed brakes, and setting the flaps
to MVR. If still sinking, consider engaging the fuel flows to override.
3.16. Single Aileron Roll (Opposite direction of the Slow Speed Pass).
