 Hey Pugs I think your comments a great. It doesn't hurt to toss it around. RC aerobatics IMAC or Pattern it's pretty much the same thing. I just wish we could all understand that it's a personal preference that's all. Good luck and by all means stay interested. Thanks, Mike

I think you and Dave are missing my point entirely.  I am not saying that I am not happy flying pattern, or that pattern as ran me out. I am saying the exact opposite of that.  I enjoyed it and would still be perusing it if I could afford it.  I was just responding to Anthony's question on how to attract new people.  Period.  I was trying to give a real world experience as to why I was leaving pattern.  If you view an honest opinion has bashing (dirty laundry) then so be it.  I am passionate about this hobby and I have opinions.  I find it hard to sit back and say nothing when people bring this topic up in this list.  I would think someone as passionate, as I assume you are (my impressions of meeting you in Dayton), would want to discuss this as well, and to take into account people's ideas and thoughts.
 
I will be the first one to admitt that I got a little carried away with the last discussion that I decided to participate in on this list.  I took things out of context, said somethings that I really didn't mean, and learned a lot about a few people on this list.  I can assure you my response to the initial question this go around was not bashing, it was purely concern on my part, and others as it seams, about the future of pattern.
 
I like this list for information that is passed around on plane trimming, new equipment, and such.  You guys tend to go into more detail then other list.  I plan on continue monitoring of this list for that purpose.  I doubt however, that I will ever post another message to this list, cause opinions are not welcome.  This again is not meant to bash.  I understand that I blew any creditability by my previous rant and I can live with that.
 
Good luck with your winter build, and your up coming season.
