OK folks it is the off season and I am sure that you are all getting your annual done in preparation for the next flying season.
So what are you going to do next year ?
Why not SERIOUSLY consider taking that great red plane of yours to an aerobatics contest as either a competitor of volunteer ?
In an attempt to spike your interest I have included this years primary knowns from IAC
<<primary.pdf>>
Basically, for those that don't yet read Aresti (see http://www.mini-iac.com/Portals/57ad7180-c5e7-49f5-b282-c6475cdb7ee7/ARESTI-DICTIONARY.pdf) , it is
1. A one turn spin.
2. A loop.
3. Half Cuban 8.
4. Roll.
5. 90 Deg turn.
All stuff you guys probably do on a Sunday afternoon, why not jump in. Nobody expects you to be a Rick Basiliere from day one (sorry Rick) the best bit about a competition is that you first off compete against yourself and then against others.
And hey there is no requirement to wear a flight suit, (comment for Frank and Brian ) ) infact I don't see a reg that stops you from doing it in the buff if you wish. I know that there are a few aerobatic lurkers on the list so why not make this the year you make the leap, literally, into aerobatics, common you know you want to..........
Even if you decide to just see what goes on find out where the contests are from the iac web site www.iac.org
Also if you are experienced why not offer to be a "buddy" for someone who wants to start.
And for those that refuse to fly unless it is in a pack, you can fly to the contest together (TONGUE PLANTED RIGHT INTO MY CHEEK).

Gus;
Thanks for all that. I'll buddy up with anyone who would like to. Joe (Felix) Wilkins (took some dual from me) has done a few contests and one in my Yak-55 (and trophied!) when his -52 was "new asphalted" into his hangar last year. I'm working on the rest of the Colorado Yak Pac. Tumbled with Allen Tinnes... he won a trophy (I think) at LAA last year in Primary. Even if he did cause a little consternation when he left (flew to the boonies) to get some more practice time after the contest began. A faux pas. We all love you Allen.
I have been invited to practice formation, I accepted, you guys have cahones (sp? gonads...you know) the size of watermelons. It scares me to see airplanes that close when they are on the ground and not tied down...I respect what you all do, it is real pretty - please try adding the last dimension - go vertical - have more fun - be safe and get to laugh at me when I attempt to join a formation.
BTW, you can do even Sportsman (at)82% :0)
Respectfully, Rick b

If you are so inclined, you can contact me off line to discuss some basics on -52 airbatics.
