Very cool Jay! I'd say "yes" to the partnership on the provision that
the plane be stored at my home airport here on the left coast. Hey,
just think of all the x-c and mountain flying time you could get in on
your way to/from here :-) I'd even offer to fly it back to IOW and OSH
at least once a year.
If you think the maneuvers you did were fun, you should try spins...see
if you remember and can execute the proper recovery procedure. My
problem was *not* neutralizing opposite rudder once the rotation
stopped. Oops...way too much going on when you're pointed down and the
world is spinning away and rushing up at you.
Yep, +4/-2Gs is pretty cool. Made any roller coaster experience pale in
comparison. Oh ya, aerobatics can take the aviation addiction to
greater levels.
Glad you had a chance to experience some acro. Agreed that anyone that
has never done it should find an acro. instructor and go play for a bit.
