For the the tenth time or so, it's quoted in post 56. The defender must have his legal position (but not "a" legal position, apparently) BEFORE the opponent goes airborne. If the defender is moving after the opponent is airborne, then he doesn't have position yet, does he?

In any case, I'm leaving for two weeks vacation. So I'm afraid that I'm done with this discussion for a while. Everybody have a safe celebration on the 4th.
