I must say that I've got a WHOLE new respect for the FAI guys... those 1 1/2
snaps on straight lines are brutal!  I had a ball - even scored an 811 in
round 4 so some of the manoeuvres must have been recognisable.  FAI next
year!

  Further to Wayne's question on the Spin...

  Wayne got first hand experience this past weekend as we only had one
Expert/Master entry this year in our Victoria Contest. Wayne stepped up and
flew P-03 with us and, by all indications, thoroughly enjoyed the
experience. With zero practice time Wayne did an excellent job and I commend
him for his efforts.

    Seeing as you'll probably be judging me at the upcoming contest may I
suggest you just watch my example and score a simple 10.  Downgrade the
others as you see fit :-) :-) :-)

      Thanks Steve,

      So back to the FAI spin, if I understand correctly the change in
direction of the spin should be when the wings are 90' to the line of
flight?

      Sorry to seem so thick, I just want to get it right for these guys!
