This episode features our guest and dear friend, George Hicks, taking on a listener question from Bill Lairsey in Portland Maine. Bill asks for some setup techniques to minimize wing rock during harrier maneuvers. George answers the question and shows us how setup and several other key factors are critically linked to producing amazing harrier and elevator maneuvers.

George describes the proper way to perform the maneuvers, radio setup, airplane design attributes and flying techniques that will help you perform harrier maneuvers just like the pros.
