Incredible (as a good friend puts it)... CB, wish you were here! Anyhow, the party is just getting started. After a day of acro maneuvers the small contingent of acro pilots voted to move on to free style acro show. I am still getting amazing amount of feedback on my flying from all - pilots in the group include Pál and Gabor<>www.justacro.com, Mahony of Turkey and a few others whos full names I am still to get.
Tonight we had a fun communal dinner with all the Acro pilots (some of the best in the world!) and Vertigo International contingent.
Today was also quite memorable for two things - my continued efforts to learn the Helico from oral instruction initially resulted in an iinadvertentpractice of severe cravat recovery but on my third run after additional feedback from Mendo I finally got it! A controlled Helicopter! Will keep practicing to make it consistent... Then there was a brief opening ceremony with the acro pilots standing in for pictures - will do my best to get that picture to post.
Anyhow, must sleep and get ready for the free style acro tomorrow!
