Next year (DV) I will be the first octogenarian ever to compete in any world aerobatic championship and am looking forward to it immensely. What is that apt saying - "I am not as good as once I was.... but I am as good once as ever I was.....!!!!". I think it was originally coined to apply to other than aerobatic activities but still involved unusual positions. I have yet to decide which of my many relations will accompany me to Stauning next year. The Sheikh and the US Navy retired pilot have enthralled the others in my wardrobe with tales of their experiences in 2017.
