....naahhhh.....not me....maybe Troy.  I usually go 500+ flights on rud/elev servos and 250 on ailerons before changing the pots.  For me, 500 flights is about what I put on the primary pattern plane.  My guess is that Jason hasn't been putting in that many flights on his primary pattern plane in recent years - with the time he also spends on other events.  Of course with the TOC being history, 2004 might be different........<G>.

Now, how well Jason could fly pattern with 500 flights in a year.......that might not drive me crazy either - just make me try to figure out how to get in 1,000 flights in a year!!!  (Mark Atwood, I know what you are going to say).

    So after 3 years using the servos in my AS I should have sent them in for "repairs". Well, that explains allot....mostly that I'm lazy...LOL. I guess I figure if it still works well enough to get through the pattern, I don't need to take the time to change it out.


  Jason - You are going to drive pilots like Troy Newman and Dave Lockhart crazy with revelations like this. Just think of how well you could do with good servos. <VBG>
