Went up tonight with a friend in his RV-8. Smooth air and lush green fields. He's not a very good pilot though - the airplane got upside down a couple times. After landing, a friend with a crop dusting business fed everyone at the airport grilled burgers and sweet corn. Pretty good night in Iowa.

Ron, some aircraft are just that way. It happened to me in a Cinquanta Hornet, a Taylorcraft, and even an Ercoupe. Dang things just didn't want to stay upright. Probably basic design flaws, 'cause I'm sure it wasn't me. ;D
