In the few years I did demos, the crowd didn't get much out of the pattern once past the horizontal 8's. I got mor oohs and aahs by doing wingovers aimed right at the crowd. Low inverted laps and never more than one lap level. The plane looks great or did I say that already.

I used to get my best crowd reaction during demos, when landing dead stick inverted LL~

I got all dressed up for the ball, and nobody came......I'm gonna build a stooge later today! This won't happen again. If I wind up some day having to go out to the field in a wheelchair, I will go. H^^
