I have a question about movement. It has been a long time since I have played the table top version, but I'm pretty sure that you couldn't complete opposite moves in back to back turns. What I mean by that is if you make a left turn, you couldn't follow that up with a right turn, you had to move through a straight turn first.

I have seen a couple matches here where that does not seem to be the case. Have the rules changed in the last couple years, or was that just a house rule we were using. I checked with some of the people I used to play with, and they confirmed my recollection.

I quickly looked through the rules posted here and I didn't see anything about that.

Thanks

In the very first edition there were no restrictions if memory serves me right (lately it has not), but in later editions of Blue Max stability was introduced. Planes were either A, B, or C stability. A and B could not fly left then right, but C could do this. Not sure if they will add this into the game. If they do, they need to have some visual representation of left and right banking of a plane to make it easier.

Yeah, apparently this was tested quite succesfully by Phill Hall, so I would like to see this rule included.
Incidentally it's the only way to make the Camel at least comparable with the Triplane (which in reality was replaced by the Camel). With actual rules the triplane is better
