Well take time to watch your video.  You gave away a lot of points in my book.  1st you only did 1 lap after Reverse Wingover.  2nd no inverted laps.  3rd only 1 lap after vertical 8.   4th only 1 1/2 lap after hour glass..    Otherwise your pattern is getting there. H^^

John your right on all accounts of this flight.  I abbreviated some to laps because I wasn't sure about the amount of fuel I had in the tank.  BTW the inverted flight  of this plane is so nice It is almost a waste time practicing them.  My biggest concerns are bottoms as noted and my sizes are big plus most of my tight corners are missing  I don't know if anybody would be interested in me posting more flights to show the inverted level flight portion.  Unfortunately I don't have a coach so I film my flights and review them and make mental notes of my errors.

Okay, I will let have that excuse.  Who ever was helping you that day needs to watch the video with you so you 2 can work it out on what to work on.  Also get your camera in the position/side the judges would be on the circle.

Thanks Tim I though the applause would be cool.   I am learning how to use my video editing software so I hope to make my videos better.
