Schedules Old Geezer's proposal

[Henderson,Eric]

Nope! it's not SPA.  We do not fly your fathers-olds-mo-plane. We fly current technology and spec's. It's still flying turnaround just not as critically at the ends of the box. they still compete in 403 or what ever but have another award within the class for OG's. In theory and OG could win both classes.

E'
If you ignore the end box maneuvers the OG's might as well fly SPA.
Those 
maneuvers are harder than AMA maneuvers.
