Sounds like "BBQ roll" at 350 meters, coming up in about 45 min.

I think I heard PAO say "yaw", so it's more of a flat spin, changing which way the pointy end is facing. 180 degree turnaround. EDIT: PAO just read my post and repeated it on air

( I'm really enjoying this nice quiet updates-only thread, but wondering where Number One is ... )
