pt-power, good luck. Way back when, I joined a local club in Halifax. Never got very far - I only ever got out to their field 4 times as I recall (too young to drive!). I distinctly remember going out with my three channel kadet with MRC radio and watching one of the club members pulling a very fast, tight, loop right in front of us. In retrospect I think he was trying to bust the wings... but my plane passed the test! The plane met its fate some time later in the woods near Shelburne during an ill fated attempt to go-it-alone.
