That would be nice, but the 'nuts and bolts' of running the finals get 
in the way.  With the number of Master class pilots we have, it takes 
three half-days to finish the prelims.  With only one day left, all 
which could be done in the finals would be one round, if flying was 
conducted from one flightline.  If two flightlines were used, two 
rounds would have to be flown to get equal judge exposure, and it would 
take the same amount of time as the one flightline setup.
