Falby Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 If you're too long in the groove you risk a wave off or a low grade, but what if you're very wide on the down wind leg? This could add several seconds even if your groove time is good which must affect any plane or flight behind you. Just curious as I'm usually between 1.2 and 1.4 nm from the boat, but occasionally get it wrong and end up wider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harker Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 I think you get waved off if you're too far away. The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs. Join the vCVW-17 Discord.

Falby Posted May 21, 2020 Author Share Posted May 21, 2020 Thank you that's what I thought. But would the LSO give the wave off when you're behind the boat or would you get a call while you're still on the down wind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
