How about current NIFA competitors? I've done Regionals and Nationals 04-07...probably will end up coaching for Nationals 08 at MTSU since I won't be a full-time student then...

Absolutely love the team atmosphere and good times had by all...and what's wrong with learning more about the things hardly (or never) used in aviation!? *cough cough* E6b...

I always thought those E6B questions were hilarious and retarded... "While cruising along at FL 350, you start to wonder what the drag coefficient of your airplane is. So you ask your captain, and he tells you that the OAT is -20 and your TAS is 758. Knowing your OAT always reads 7 degrees high and you have your dog and 79 suitcases (weighing 97 kg each) in the back at station 894 (with a CG of 79645 mm), what is your total weight in cases of oil?"
