Bob,
I flew a Phoenix, Arrow and then ended with a Dick Hansen Dalotel.
Still have and unfinished Dalotel and Arrow.
Guess I'll hang them in a museum if I ever finish them!
You read my mind about the rudder corrections.  I was wondering if that 
would be less downgrade than a banking "S" turn.
Thanks again!
John L. Konneker
