Our group believes all maneuver's should complete within the 3 card maneuver sequence. That being said, we would like to see what you may be using, for 3 card maneuver's, inside your group. Thanks

You mean Immelmann has to be finished with straight on the 3rd planned card? Obviously NOT!
You may end up with a straight and carry on in the next three set of cards, starting with Immelmann turn.

3-card tricks
Immelman -
Straight – Reversal – Straight :
A course-reversal at the same height.
Half-loop -
Straight – Reversal (go up one peg) – Stall (short straight) :
A half-loop upwards
Split-S -
Stall (short straight) – Reversal (go down one peg) – Straight :
A half-loop downwards, also called a “split S”
Overdive -
Stall – Dive (lose 2 pegs) – Straight (lose 2 pegs)
Note: 2 steeps so take an A damage (except for SE5a, Pfalz D.III , Phoenix and Spads)
These may be spread over multiple 3 card order segments.
So a full loop would be straight-reversal-stall-reversal-straight, taking 5 cards over 2 turns. Using the rules as written, gaining the optional climb counter on the first reversal in an immelman, then losing one in a split S.
The reason there are chits for steep, climb etc are as reminders that if the third card on one turn was a steep, the first card on the next turn cannot be.
Three card loop: Climb; Immel (played to the back of the base); Any card.

Not all three card, of course, but break down into three's.
"He is wise who watches"
Those are "headspinning" examples, Dave
Will have to give them a try sometime.
I didn't realize we actually had a series of cards to represent "spinning out".
Not sure my Keller would have survived that in Mission 6
I've started using spinning out in OTT when a pilot is wounded on a steep move Pete. It's easy to play and looks effective.
"He is wise who watches"
I think I will try that as well Dave.

Our wing over is a little different then what we've seen on the site also. Played by "Stall" / "Revs", played off the firing arc / "Dive", 1 or 2 units, pilot choice
