Remember that there are still a few glitches in the film viewer so you can't rely on "Use Recorded Views" to faithfully replay recorded views.

That could have been me.  I mentioned spacial awareness in my immelman excercise film.  Many new players don't have experience with using the horizon or land marks to judge where they have their lift vector and thrust vector actually pointed.  The result is that they *think* they are doing a 180 degree reversal when they actually changed their heading 90 degrees or less.  Understanding your own position in relation to other objects is pretty vital ingredient to understanding the Situation.
