Artistic Aerobatics suggestions

[Del K. Rykert]

Hi Marguerite.
     The pace for scoring is to fast for a scribe or judge to hold up the score for each given maneuver. The manpower or expense to implement such a feature will be prohibitive. It is a nice concept but one that I don't see occurring in the near future.

   Pattern Friends.

    I think we should forget about spectators I agree(below) 

   Precision aerobatics!  that is  the goal of a pattern pilot  and what our group is about.

  Artistic Aerobatics  
   I am Not sure how Artistic Aerobatics would fit in with pattern, perhaps at the end of a pattern event with                   a pattern plane only?           If not  I would not consider it pattern event.

  A pattern plane with smoke set up on the wing tips or ribbons sounds like fun. Something not flown in your pattern class to perform in a freestyle that does sound like fun.

    
    IF we continue to keep the focus on improving pattern as we are doing our Aerobatic group will be even more challenging and rewarding. IF Artistic Aerobatics can do that for us that would be great.

  Judges       
    I have always liked the idea of seeing judges scores held up at a contest as they record them.   Would like to see the procedure at least once to see what happens......or do we want to see it ;-)
  Nice to see so many interesting topics on the list.

      people who go to Oshkosh and don't watch the airshow, or watch only one or
      two acts.

      I've advocated for a LONG time that it would be a hoot to SEE each judges
      score AS he scored the flight.  BIG LCD display on the back of the chair.

      Think of the fun..the cat calls...the throwing of glasses to the blind
      judge. LOL.

      Serously though..it would make it more fun and maybe help spectators
      understand what's happening.

      Of course the cheers and boos might be distracting..lol

    There you go Mark, let's kill the judges who don't see it our way
