Ha! I dream of a minute with no crashes!!! I usually have one or two takeoffs in mind and a couple of tricks I really want to get in there. This means I spend the first hour trying to get these done without crashing. Then, when I finally nail it, I suddenly panic beacuse I don't know what to do after this good 30 second start - so I crash!!! I think all VF entries should contain a compulsory lawn-dart - after all, if you're not crashing, you're not pushing the limits... Maybe I've just marked myself out as a n00b, but I don't care - I do VF as it forces me to have an objective for my flying, and an excuse to go flying all the time "well I'd love to stay and do the housework dear, but I really have to get my VF entry filmed, after all, I've paid the entry fee now and everything!"
