Eric Sandifer shot this great cockpit video of him doing some aerobatics in his Pitts. Watching this will give you an idea what its like from a pilots point of view, how quickly things move and how disorienting it is to new aerobatic pilots. I remember my first couple flights in the Pitts and being downright startled at how nimble the airplane was. Its hard to describe if you haven't experienced it firsthand.
Project related...I've got several irons in the fire right now. I finally got my CO detector working properly, did some layout work and ordered my final three push/pull controls (oil shutter, ram air and cabin heat) from McFarlane and lastly decided to add an accumulator to my "semi-inverted" oil system. I will comment on all of these topics in greater detail next week. Until then, as I always say, "its not going to build itself!" Have a good weekend...you know where I'll be.
