I'll second that Gregg, all the pattern fliers I've met are a great bunch of guys. All the
one's I fly with here in Texas are the best. Last month when I was getting ready for the
Todd-Max contest in Temple my YS engine crapped out and ED Deaver ( Divesplat) offered
to loan me one of his YS 1.40 DZs !! Ed and I live hundreds of miles apart so I think you
can see what a great guy he is, he certainly was under no obligation to offer that as we only
know each other from the contests we attend. I'm pretty sure any one of the other guys
would have done the same if they could. Bob 101, if you were treated badly I can assure you
those guys were the exception, not the rule.

I might head down to Houston to catch a pattern contest as a spectator - I no longer live where the incident occured and live about 2 hours from Houston now.
