Practice is starting to pay

This weekend I took the ole funtana out for a huckfest. I really have not flown much since spring (we moved and a carrer change) But practice on the sim (and a little in the air) is starting to show. After my last flight of the day my rudder was busted to heck, too cool!! can't wait to fix it and do it again!!! LOL
I'll try ro get some pics to post of the damage ha!!
Who else is really starting to notice their hard work pay off, drop a line, share your story.

Re: Practice is starting to pay

Practice is the only way that you can become better for sure..... I used to make the sim cap 232 wiegh like 1 pound total and just fly it for hours. I started flying about 1 and a half yrs ago and Ive progressed from shockys to a toc 35% yak and Im HUCKING it on the deck!!! BIgger FLIES BETTER!!!! I will try to figure out how to post a video

I really wanted a 106 for it but they are quite expensive here in canada, so I went with a DA 100. Still going to be pretty sweet

At our Dec 31 fly-in a few guys came up to me and commented on how I must have been burning alot of gas this year(a sh!t load). Kinda makes you feel good.

Ahhh...

Cessna 170. We have one and I absolutely love it. Love the rudder bashing action you've got going on there as well.

Stettler is only a rock huck away dude. we will have to hook up sometime. Stettler is a 40 min drive east of red deer, about a two hour drive south of edmonton.
