Lonely at MACK

[Jeff Hill]

I was there! It is a great contest! Terry Brox and the MACK club 
members are gracious hosts.

The CD, Terry Brox, let Intermediate choose to fly the original 402 
pattern that adds an Immelmann turn and a Positive Snap on a 45 deg 
downline to the current pattern. The other Intermediate pilot, Joe 
Dunnaway, and I both voted to fly with the two added maneuvers. It was 
unanimous! I had only done about 4 or 5 intentional snaps in my life 
before this, so Terry Brox helped me the first morning of the contest 
before competition. It was fun. Frankly, I don't know why we ever took 
those two maneuvers out. I was against it then and now I think it was a 
really dumb move. I don't think I have the freedom to do so, but if I 
could, I would have Intermediate fly the extra maneuvers at the Nats.
