I'll bite

My goal is to become good enough this year so that I can maybe do some traveling and enter in a few competitions. I have mastered most of the manuvers to were I dare do them pretty low. Now I just need to learn to be more precise and steady.

My goal is to make it to the Tucson Aerobatic Shootout. This is my first year ever competing in any aerobatic venue, so it's a stretch...
I also want to perfect my hammerheads and spins - been doing them for years the way I wanted, but now that someone else wants them done a different way (the correct way, lol!), I find that I really need to break some habbits that I have engrained in myself in the past 20 years!
I also want to start a freestyle routine for 2009, just so I have something ready in case they have a freestyle at any of the contests I enter next year. That would be fun.

I want to get into the Air Force Academy.

To be the best pilot I can be, and turn twice as many heads.

cliff600 · 04-13-2008, 03:40 PM

Just to always have PERFECT landings

Improve my precision and freestyle flying, but since our house has a purchase agreement I will just be hoping it closes and get started on my new house. Next year will be better for RC flying the way it looks now. Hope all of you can make progress to your goals, they are a good thing to start the season with.

Have the best group of people around me and fly all I can even though I am busy building the AMA west coast show team. Be the person my dog thinks I am and stay healthy.

Not much to ask for, so I have been building and flying all I can. Working on getting the best management staff I can get for the AMA team so far, and being the best master to my dogs I can be.

In your case, money will be the only limiting factor
