Flywilly,
Very, very interesting idea/concept. I'm back into itafter a long lay-off too. My other half says I'm obsessed (so be it). I like competition, but didn't like where pattern was heading. I hope that those much better informed than I willtake yourwords and consider them with much seriousness. I try to avoid the politics of our past-times (hobbies or otherwise), but I also wonder if we'll lose the type of flyingthat was a major part of my teensthrough mid twenties and seemingly appeals to many, many modelers. I know that when my youngest is out of college, I will likely go bananas with this past-time again(read spend my money). Nuff said...except that I recall Novice also had the one outside loop and the inverted flight (or old two-point roll).
