Damn I'm hungry
I will be headed for Sherman, TX in about 3 hours for their IMAC contest this weekend. Going to be flying the Yak that I only have about 7 flights on! Should prove to be interesting :)

May Triumph and Success be your guide.......Now go and knock the hell out of your IMAC sequence:attaboy:.

For me......A white truck should be rolling up the drive way in about 3 hours. It better have two large boxes marked :cool:.
IF not the furnace won't be necessary:devil: HMMBWAAAAA........HMNNNBWAAA...AHH.....AHH!!!

Good luck Mark. It may interest you to know I've started dabbling with precision flying and stuff. I'm very seriously giving it (IMAC) some thought. I really like the gentle and giant ways these planes fly. Dang, I love how "honed" feeling my Sukhoi is. I don't think I could have asked for a better plane to try it all with.

We have a lot of people using the Sukhoi's in the Sportsman and above classes. Nice flying planes :) You have been warned that the bug bites hard :)

Hey Buddy,
IMHO, you have the right plane for IMAC and the Sukhoi is an AWESOME flying airplane. However, it's hard to beat a well balanced Extra for flying precision aerobatics, especially a 260. . . . . . :yesss:. Not that I have any first hand experience, I've just watched a very talented flyer I know fly both planes and his Extra does appear (to me) to fly smoother.

OK, I got to go back to work now. . . . :(

Well today was just awesome. Can you believe this weather?!? Light breeze in the morning, 60 degrees and just me and my friend playin'! After two hours, zero wind...just a slight breeze and 80 degrees. 4 great flights on the 260. It is very tough to decide which is smoothest. The 260 or the Sukhoi. I guess they both have a warm place for me to enjoy. Though my Suk is so accurate and smooth, the 260 is too. But man will she huck!!!:woohoo!:
