thanks by opening up some realities, exactly what i am looking for. you give me much to consider. N20 with diminishing numbers may give me better results, and enough exposure to make a transition in a few years, or on the flatter line of my learning curve. this may well be the way to go.
if i can actually get the curve to flatten! i could transition into Acat's, or the F16 or what suits my ability and interest. hopefully not ending up in the "also ran" category.
