Hello,

Thanks for all your input. I have done most of your suggestions to this point with the exception of visiting(to fly) or joining a club.

(yes to the following - I learned quickly that different direction is really different!! Are you able to take-off and land from either direction? It's surprising how many have this problem. Cross wind techniques for both? Do the rolls both directions? Use the rudder all the time? Most well trimmed airplanes need a touch of rudder for loops, right for inside, left for outside. Loops take elevator and throttle management as well. Do you coordinate the rudder in the turns, both upright and inverted.)

I have never really been a organization person. There are two clubs in the area and I have visited the one just to watch what they are flying and they are flying. What is amazing to me is the two locations where the clubs fly, both seem to lay in a valley with stands of trees very close to their runways. I would actually like to invite them to my place. I have about 50 acres of nothing but fields, no trees and two runways cut in my hay fields.

I really want to thank you again for the help and info. I think my next step will be the GP Skybolt it is ready and just waiting a battery charge.
