Thanks John.
It looks like I have to investigate more about what the district 1 is; I'd love to catch more than just this one meet. I certainly don't expect any kind of trophy this weekend; all I hope for is not to embarrass myself. If I can actually do each maneuver when it's supposed to be done I would consider that HUGE. But we'll see where my nerves are at when I get there. I'm sure I'll be asking plenty of questions regardless. It sounds like I've found the right place though (pattern). I think anything worth doing is worth doing right, flying definitely included.
