Line Up and Wait
In my previous posts about the Waco, don't think I ever mentioned that aerobatics is basically solo in a Classic (YMF-5C). The MGW for aero is 300 pounds less than "normal." Two normal people could not have any reasonable fuel.
I haven't had much time for aerobatics lately, but I found this site:

and bought a camera. It is so light that I could Velcro it to a headband (with a small piece of aluminum angle to keep it horizontal). It is great for me to see what I am doing, e.g., I am not always starting my loops level, don't spend enough time looking to the side. The video quality is great, but on a headband it isn't something most people would want to actually watch. I bought the normal and wide angle versions. The normal is a better picture, the wide is a better instructor.
Only news of note, is that with the front windshield on, my YMF spirals out of a spin before even one turn.
