Anyone know of any aerobatic helicopter pilots?

Help! I am a graduate student conducting research on student pilots and flight schools. Have you ever been 'fed-up' with a flight school and quit? Lousy experience? Bad CFIs? Poor reliabilty? Took all your $$$... I need to survey YOU! PLEASE help me and take my survey. It will only take a few...

CAMERA BAGS ARE NO LONGER ALLOWED AT THE PSAM. Went down there today to see the B-25 flight, and they would not let me in, period. Backpacks are also not allowed. BUT they will continue to allow women to bring in those bigass purses of theirs......something stinks.......
