    Well today started rainy windy and shiz and pretty much stayed that way all day... car was packed from the previous day... misses had had enough of my crappy mood told me to piss off and fly...

    So down to the club I went..wind howling rain falling... thinking this will be a waste... There were only 2 other people there...

    Sitting in the club room chatting away I mentioned I was keen to give autos a go... the other guy seemed a pretty competent flyer said he was happy to walk me through it...

    Did I happen to mention his name was James something or other... ahhh that's right.. James Dargue.. :)


    So 10 min later were on the flight line and in that flight completed my first auto...

    Several autos later and some huge thanks from me he took off. He only hung round as long as he did to help me out....

    Must say he is one awfully nice guy... not to mention seeing him fly is an eye opener...

    Thanks James... if I can do anything to help you out in the future just let me know..

      I haven't even got upright autos nailed yet! Inverted autos are a fair way away for now.

      Oh dear, discovering my subliminal antics are we? Well yes you may be correct about my "dirty tactics". I have no problem hitting below the belt in order to achieve my objectives. Bit by bit I will scheme and plot and eventually - one day - capture your heli soul! Muah ha ha ha.....
