Gents,

There are only a few times a pilot should trying something for the fir= st time alone in an airplane. Landing on an aircraft carrier for the = first time (that's the Navy way, but that is after the pilot has = over 100 hours practicing at a field twice daily) and "checking out" i= n a single seat airplane.

Be smart and find someone who is versed in aerobatics to demonstrate t= hose maneuvers before trying them in your Lancair alone. It is t= he prudent thing to do as an aviators. If you don't wish to take the = instructor pilot up in your plane, go rent or fly their aerobatic airplane.=

I don't post much, but after watching the last posts on aerobatics, it= sends chills up my spine as to how basic the questions have been and how t= here is so much misunderstanding of the basics.

You wouldn't fly in a cloud alone for the first time, would you?

Remember boys, there are no old bold pilot,

Hartley Postlethwaite
