I thought that "BIG BIRD" (aka 6'7" tall Danhakl) was actually going to be at a fly in. BUMMER!!! And I would ahve thought about showing up if he were there!!

Kenny, maybe change the thread title to "Giant Scale Fly-In SE, MI"

Just being difficult!!!

The answer to winning isn't retiring, it's called moving up

If you had moved up you wouldn't been creaming everyone

Basically IMAC is the same as Pattern, just with Scale planes, which does make it a little harder to make the maneuvers as clean as with a Pattern plane. But just ask anybody, Pattern planes fly themselves.

I'm pretty sure I'll be attempting a little IMAC myself, next year, at least that's the plan.
