<DIV> Precision aerobatics! that is the goal of a pattern pilot and what our group is about.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Artistic Aerobatics </DIV>
<DIV> I am Not sure how Artistic Aerobatics would fit in with pattern, perhaps at the end of a pattern event with a pattern plane only? If not I would not consider it pattern event.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>A pattern plane with smoke set up on the wing tips or ribbons sounds like fun. Something not flown in your pattern class to perform in a freestyle that does sound like fun.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> IF we continue to keep the focus on improving pattern as we are doing our Aerobatic group will be even more challenging and rewarding. IF Artistic Aerobatics can do that for us that would be great.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Judges </DIV>
<DIV> I have always liked the idea of seeing judges scores held up at a contest as they record them. Would like to see the procedure at least once to see what happens......or do we want to see it ;-)</DIV>
<DIV>Nice to see so many interesting topics on the list.</DIV>
