Though I've flown lots and lots of planes, I'm just getting back into it again after a nearly 30-year hiatus--and I realize, I've never really mastered any flying skills. Never had any instruction whatsoever from a vet; just went out and flew on my own--with buddies like myself who'd never had any instruction, either.

Used to fly combat planes, in the mid-70's--though I never actually flew IN combat--I just loved the style and speed of this kind of plane.

Just been reading what I can find, about not flexing the wrist, but just holding your wrist firm and pointing your arm where you want the plane to go.

See how this would work for, say, an outside loop--but what about an inside loop? (Used to always crash whenever I tried an inside loop).

So, do you do your flexing at the elbow?

(If there's a basic beginners' list or how-to y'all could point me to, I'd be grateful).

Thanx heaps, y'all, for your attention,
M
