I am going to complete formation training first, aiming to fly a couple competitions later this year.

Still need to get through accelerated/flat spin training before I get into any vertical maneuvers, hammerheads especially given the -52's flat-spin mode (probably only 1, maybe 2 flights).

Currently comfortable with loops, rolls (non-competition), barrel rolls, and will start playing with Cuban's and point rolls soon for fun.

It's coming.....
