Is there anywhere I can go that details the manuevers in the various IMAC sequences - something that explains the diagrams? As a newbie, I can't make heads or tails of the diagrams of the various schedules on the IMAC site.

Thanks.

there are several written discriptions on here somewhere. but i see you live in the NC region, come to the NC judging seminr the last week of april. you'll learn everything you want to know, and more. its very well done, and lots of fun. but keep looking on here for them.

Wayne,

Very nice! I had to make a few copies of that for myself to hand out to some new pilots in our club.

Bob,

There are a few guys from the area going to the Judging Seminar in Muncie later this month as Brian mentioned. It is not a required seminar to fly IMAC, but it sure does help. If you would like to go let me know, we can ride together or follow each other.

The first IMAC contest in Michigan is being held in May just down the road from you. It is actually my clubs contest. We will be having a few practice days before the contest for those that want to join in the fun, you are of course welcome to be there. We do not actually have a practice day scheduled yet, but I am sure there will be very soon......it needs to warm up a bit.


Brian,

Hope to see you before Muncie, practicing at our field. I'll let you know the date and time later.


Tim Wieber

if you do a search i wrote a relatively detailed description of the basic sequence a few months ago.

Thanks everyone. Wayne - thanks for putting that info out here... I missed it on that site somehow. Appreciate your help.

Tim - thanks for the info. I noticed the events around the state and I'm surely going to try and make as many as I can, especially the one at your field - I figure it's under an hour away. That seminar at Muncie really looks sweet and I'd love to go. I'll have to think about it as it's hard to break away for an entire weekend with family and work.
