It wasnt a radio hit.

I was flying by myself and doing torque rolls down the field at about 20', when a new pilot with a 40 size Mustang decided to takeoff by doing a 20 foot roll and a pull to vertical under me.

Never noticed that I had been hovering for 30 seconds right where he pulled up.

In an effort to avoid him hitting me I lost it. It all happened so fast its hard to recreate what happened. Needless to say, I am PO'ed.

I have planes to get me thru the season, but I really loved that YAK. I bought it expressly for the purpose of flying at my local field (which is all crazy all the time), but now that QQ has packed it in, it isnt even a replaceable plane, which was the original plan.

Still drinking. Feel better!
