I hope to be flying Basic next year. Still have a lot of preparation to do, but about the only advantage to living here in the sub-tropics is generally decent flying weather during winter. I should have my H9 Extra done in a few weeks, then can start get serious about practice. My CG Sukhoi just doesn't have enough power, but will suffice as a back-up plane. Its not like I'll be a contender, right???

I'm all for a Basic discussion thread; this is all new to me.
