Thankyou for giving me the opportunity to persue this sport to a greater length.

That's awesome!

That's what brothers are for!!

I read some where (in the IMAC rules), that you can fly IMAC with a scale model of a full size aircraft that is capable of flying the maneuvers in an Aerobatic Box. So in theory if you build scale model of an aircraft that was design for IAC, you can fly it at an IMAC event. Even if the full scale airplane haven't competed yet in IAC or even flown yet. It only needs to be capable of flying the maneuvers in an aerobatic box.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>

I didn't see what was so funny about the Cub freestyle. Boring if you ask me.

Mark.... you're the man. Your flights were great - just watched them on Flightpass which was super sweet on my large LCD and the sound was awesome. Also got a chance to see your golf skills in the 2007 reel. I can't believe you could bounce the ball on the club face like that! You obviously have some serious hand/eye co-ordination.... I vote Mark gets a 100point handicap

Dang Craven,

I thought it was an awesome free with a Cub, not to many that can do that with a Cub of that size, or any other. That Freestyle made me want one of those birds, and I'm not kidding!! The only thing that's holding me back is finances...I would have one if I could afford it

I would like to see you do that with a Cub of any size. Pretty impressive considering that is a 50% Plane with a flat bottom wing.

I've got a 25% Cub. It's fun to play with. What I was saying was it wasn't that cool compared to the rest of the freestyles. I wasn't falling all over myself watching it. I was waiting for the wing to fall off (if you want the truth) and to see the ever so dangerous and increasing Hemple attempt.

If I remember correctly he landed a plane with half a wing once. Go to his website and check it out. If that is not talent, I don't know what is. What do you mean by the "ever so dangerous and increasing Hempel attempt"? Pilot envy?!?!

I reckon TAS 2009 Freestyle should have a new rule "Planes must resemble a WWII Warbird". I wanna see someone hover and rolling harrier a B29 bomber. Now that would be interesting, this extras yaks and sukhoi stuff has all be done to death in freestyle..

No pilot envy at all. I'm sure I could do it. I just think it has started a horrible trend in our hobby.
