How about simply "Stick"? He's tall and lanky so it fits that way too.

Jump in it dude!!

If I had talent, opportunity and youth on my side, or any one of the three for that matter, I'd be dangerous! You have all of the above as far as I can tell, so just go as far as that road will take you and enjoy the ride.

Ben, good times in san antonio....loved it, thanks again! I really need somthing fresh to get my interest back and honestly i think pattern will sharpen my IMAC when I come back to it...

as far as freestyle goes ive honestly grown to enjoy precision flying allot more, freestyle is kinda stressfull and I aint that good at it ha

Hey John I am thinkin the same thing. Pattern would be far more affordable and the planes are kool too. Dave V. suggested it to me and I like the idea.
