if you want to put them all to use..just grab yourself a hunk of info at http://www.mini-iac.com/DesktopDefault.aspx

Learn some basic Aserti (diagrams for manuveurs) and practice the Basic level. It is a nice set of 10 manuveurs that really
fit well and it gives you a stong platform for precision flying.

Here is a link to a very nice video showing the sequence. If you enjoy like I do, jump in to IMAC and join in for some competition.

about 1hr and 20 min drive heading towards vegas..dry lake would be on your left then just as you see the big long grade going up to railroad pass and boulder city..turn off on to the lake (left) just as you get past the powerlines 3/4 mile or so.
