<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I know the feeling. Flying always made me
feel better and was a good stress relief. Although Dad's coaching could
get a little intense. LOL I am not sure I will be able to start
preparing this year. Probably no stick time, but will be able to really
make sure the plane is ready. A lot of extra checks and rechecks and
maintenance will make sure things are really ready.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>BTW, yes it has been a LONG time since we flew
together.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Welcome back. I had some issues and was
out for almost 10 years too. I came back for a bit and then things
went really bad. Hopefully next year I will back on my feet
enough to compete again. I will be in Advanced as well. I flew
the very end of 2007 and took 3rd in Advanced at the NATS in 2008.
Unfortunately I have not flown a pattern plane again since.

<DIV class=h5>I am getting back into pattern after a 10 year layoff, so I
need an upgrade to a more recent design and hardware. I am not interested
in electric, looking for a YS170 setup. <BR>I will be flying Advanced my
first year back, but will move back to Masters so I need something that
will perform well in Masters.<BR><BR>I am still doing research but I
personally like the following
