He offers the me the sticks every flight, but I'm just a little too nervous to fly at shows, etc. I fly the snot out of my Elan, etc but just don't want to risk such a nice, ironed-out plane. Thanks for the compliments on the Tucano. It sure beats the low vis gray scheme it had previously. Still a few things to iron out. Will probably stay with the SPT-5 as it has "adequate" power. BTW, the JetCat 140RX is plenty of power for the BVM F-16.
