I have a A/C that did a two steps pull transition from INV to ISTD. Completed 2 gHT's and has started a 3rd which leaves a 1gHT carry. The question is does the 1 FP reduction go away at the end of the turn or when the A/C complets the HT ?
I believe this has been answered before, and the answer is "the 1gHT turn carry becomes 1HT".

The 2BTL carry is not a gravity helped BT. Can really the first gravity helped turn started on FP2 be made with a requirement of 1, given that the required requirement for gravity helped BT at speed 6 is 2-1.
This is one of those situations you can probably argue both ways.
But – I prefer a clean transition from one type of event to another.
The turn with gravity turn cycle is 2-1-2-etc.
It is NOT 1-2-1.
So to keep it simple. The 2-2-2 cycle must be completed before the 2-1-2 cycle begins.
The 1HT carry George 5 had, is part of the 2-2-2 cycle. Only when that is finished should the 2-1 cycle commence...
The basic game mechanic principle I've stayed with for the most part is that rules are exclusive and I try to minimize double duty FPs to try and avoid confusion.

Situation: An aircraft in IShD, does an Inverted Pull x3 into StD (after reversal).
Does this aircraft benefit from the "Turns with gravity" turn rate reduction, as long as the turns are performed while the aircraft is inverted ??
No. Transition must be from one inverted to another inverted attitude.
Only a pull x 2 would work, from ISHD to IVD (no reversal to upright) would be okay.
