[NSRCA-discussion] A lighthearted request

[ehaury]

Absolutely - that's actually where the term "pattern" came from as "patterns" were flown in a horizontal plane that depicted 8's, procedure turns, traffic patterns, etc. with rudder only escapement models.

  Now that I have picked myself up off the floor. 

  I would - seriously - like to ask if Pattern was ever flown with single channel escapements.

        With the Pattern Nationals at our doorstep, in retrospect, I'll like to hear what you feel have been some of the pattern equipment "Game Changers" during the years pass. The biggest one I can think of is proportional radios; but, this only my second year flying pattern.
