I agree gpwurzel.
While there are times I want to fly the pony, la, or spixteen, I have been quite happy in my spit9 for the past month.
How did I end up there? ENY was too high a few times, and I had to find something other than the low eny planes to fly. I would like to thank the ENY rule for forcing me to learn to fly, rather than rely on having a clearly better machine than the other guy.
I still have a long way to go, for sure, but being forced to the Spit9 has been great for me. A mini version of this happened a couple of months ago when I found out that I was happy flying the 51B.
This is not for everyone, I recognize, but it seems to have worked for me. Thanks and a big
to all of you who have handed me my arse at different times. I have learned many hard lessons in my few months here, and look forward to many more!
