<div><SPAN contentEditable=false style="DISPLAY: inline-block"></SPAN>It seems to me that we keep "learning" the same lessons but some just never get the memo. Rolling circles are very neat differentiating maneuvers BUT not desirable in neither IMAC nor Pattern circles. They simply consume too much real estate and contradict the very essence of why we in Pattern moved to quiet our models. Noise reduction footprint was at the core of that effort some 25 years ago.</div>

<div>As my good friend Dean Pappas and I have discussed on many occasions, rolling loops, segments, variations, etc. are just as neat as circles and consume no more footprint than the typical schedule would. Oh BTW, these are far less difficult to judge objectively</div>

It's funny. I brought my 40% Carden out of mothballs last weekend to work on the F3M stuff and all I wanted to do was fly it like a pattern airplane. Ofcourse it doesn't quite measure up, but I found that I really have no enthusiasm left for wapping through rolls where the only skill involved is being able to stop on time. I admit, on the last flight of the day I digressed and did about 10 minutes of 3d-ish garbage, until I finally realized that it was really not very satisfying. Foamies are more fun these days than knocking the sticks around on a 40 % gasser. I guess I'm just getting old...<br>
