    Description:

    Falling Leaf. This is another diving maneuver. Shown in Figure 13, the aircraft uses one or more sideslips to lose altitude. The aircraft drops 100 meters with each sideslip and each sideslip uses two squares of movement.

    To pull out of the maneuver, the aircraft moves straight ahead from the space where the sideslip is completed. The aircraft must lose at least 100 meters when using the falling leaf and cannot climb afterward during the same turn.
