This old, outdated and unenforcable rule should be removed today.

I am installing a turn and bank. *I thumb my nose at this rule. *Go ahead and throw me out of the contest. *I honestly could care less.

That vario by the way is REALLY nice and I strongly encourage anyone interested to buy it regardless of this ridiculous rule which deliberately discourages safety, innovation and trust.

As for flying with a turn-n-bank, I have never tried it for real. But,
for you condor flyers out there, try climbing into a cloud on your
computer and using the TNB to keep upright and circle. It is VERY
difficult without a lot of practice. Just get straight and try to fly
out of the cloud. Even on the computer without inner ear motion tricks
it's tough to do.
