I would have to agree with both of you, But , What if we say Ivan representing the seasoned flyers and Adam for the younger generation, BTW he is great inspiration for our boys!

I vote Ivan and Adam both very good at what they do. Both Seasoned Imac pilots Adam Unlimited, Ivan Advanced. Both have that left stick under control and know how to give the plane what it needs. I truly enjoyed watching several others flying also. I think the Imac training has alot to do with being a great Hucker.
My .02 cents

I also learned a little about how Ivan flies with such control. I watched his fingers and learned something to help me have better controll. Next time you see a great hucker go watch his fingers. Adam is a thumber Ivan holds the sticks with 3 fingers most of the time. (2 on the left always and one on the right most of the time. You have to watch to learn. I have used what I learned from Ivan on the sim this week and can see a improvement in my own flying. I used to be a thumber years ago.
Adam has awsome control for a thumber and can fly very precisely.
Adam also has lightining like reflexes wich helps him stay ahead of the plane.
I think it has to do with youth.

Nice meeting you guys this weekend!

Many of the heli guys, including me, fly same way and though I fly most of my fixed wing stuff with thumbs I've found myself pinching the sticks on the Yak when down low to have better control.
