Aerobatic Maneuvers

[FN FAL]

Hey asshole, allow me to quote the Duke, and tell you to go "scrub your nuts with a wirebrush."

R.I.P. Nick, and condolances to his family. I wish you'd go mouth off to them right now, and to see the results.

What are you talking about?

Respect for the dead.

Respect for the dead.

That's your moral dilemma. Fun is fun and done is done.

 

[VNugget]

No dilemma.

 

[FN FAL]

No dilemma.

So what was the point of the arms flailing and swinging at fence posts? All I did was ask WMU if that was him. At first glance, the co-inky-dink was remarkable. After further review, I noticed they were not the same person.

Oh I see, just an innocent little question. Damn, I was waiting for you to come to town, I miss a good standup routine.

Wow. Caught me off guard. I met Nick and the other "Stars of Tomorrow" at Oshkosh last year. I got to tag along in the photo ship while Nick and about 6 other aerobatic aircraft flew on our wing in close formation. He had a lot of talent, and was well on his way to a successful airshow career. God bless his soul.
Be careful out there, you aerobatic types.

What's it like to want?

It's not as blissful as ignorance. But, hey it's an anonymous forum. You wouldn't get away with making light of a down aero pilot in person with any competition, IAC or enthusiast circles.

I learned that lesson when I made a comment on a poor aileron roll done by a sukhoi pilot while practicing in her new airplane. 3 guys (world class competition pilots) came to me quietly and privately one by one to make sure I understood clearly that you do not make fun of other people's aerobatics. I would consider myself fortunate I learned the lessons I learned at 20. Unfortunately you've never flown IAC. You'd know better.

I never critiqued anyone's flying, I just asked the guy who wanted to learn aerobatic flying in an EXTRA by reading from the internet, if that was him.
