In spite of all of my pontificating about being gentle on initial rides, I
think that the lady in the video will start taking lessons. The instructor
is great. Go to www.usatoday.com/feedroom and click on the Pitts video.

Acro is a lot of fun. I've only done a single introductory lesson in a
super decathlon but it was an absolute blast. Loops, rolls, spins,
hammerheads...oh ya...way to much fun. IMHO, everyone should, at a
minimum, go up and learn how to really recover from a spin. Or...in my
case, learn how you can screw up that recovery. Nothing like seeing the
world spinning around while pointed straight down from 8000 ft MSL.
