Hello everyone,
I have been encouraged by a few fellow RVers to post a quick impression of my first year competing in IAC. I can honestly say it has been overwhelmingly positive. Established IAC members are excited to see new competitors and there is always someone around to help or give advice should you ask for it. My RV-4 does not have inverted systems (yet) but I was still more than capable of completing both Primary and Sportsman Sequences, never getting above 5Gs, and usually not above 4Gs. There are a few unique challenges in competiting in an RV, but every airframe has its own advantages and challenges.
There is a large push right now in IAC to grow the ranks, and IAC knows that the RV community could be a part of that. I've had more than one officer in the IAC actively engage me on how to get more RVs in IAC, and they have been receptive to my suggestions.
I created a facebook page that covers my aerobatic adventures. If anyone would like to see my GoPro videos, including my competition runs, please visit (and "like"):

If anyone has questions or comments, or seeking advice on how to get started, please feel free to let me know. Have a great week everyone!
Cheers
