I like the people I find in the pattern circles. The big draw back for me is that I live in central Arkansas, to go to anything worth entering in pattern, I have to go to another state. No one flies pattern here. I do think IMAC has a better set up, in that it allows more personal freedom while performing..(planes, freestyle, etc.). There are no IMAC folks here either, but there are lots of great pilots who would do well in IMAC or pattern, they just wont do anything structured. I wish I could generate more intrest, but I'm tired of hitting a brick wall. Just my 2 cents worth.
