  Scott,
  You mentioned that you liked the way I fly a "high speed pass".
  
  This is a very simple maneuver until you reach the point that your nose is
still up at 45 degrees or more and you're running out of airspeed.  Don't be
looking at your AOA for any help.
  And please,  don't even start one of these unless you are comfortable with
stalls, stall avoidance, spin prevention, and unusual attitude recovery in
your airplane.
  If you look at Lee's  statistics again, you won't see where exacting AOA
control was the issue.  You will see where pilots were surprised by sudden
inadvertent conditions.
  The NTSB will never indicate "failure to maintain AOA" as a cause.
  
  You're invited up to New England anytime.
  
  Mark Ravinski
