Wouldn't be a bad idea to have a tear-off pad of them for the judges at the flight-line to hand out as new members landed.

The floppy hammer is a COMPLETELY intentional, signature SlowHuck maneuver. Do I get a charter membership?

When you do a hammerhead/stall turn (same maneuver) and instead of the plane rotating around the CG, it sorta flops over, sometimes on it's back, soimetimes it does a half roll.

In IMAC, depending on the options, it can be a very high scoring maneuver so when you flop one it counts as a zero for points. When you were learning to fly it is probably one of the first aerobatic maneuvers you learned along with a loop

FireFighterFSFD do you know what a Hammer or Hammerhead as a maneuver is ? Have you ever flopped one? If you answered both of these questions yes, please send me 49.99 and I will send you an application packet.

It was early Sunday morning, there was something like 3 or 4 of us awake. I think Adam was there, Kent Porter and myself as well as SlowHuck
