Scoring formula/ and observations

[Steven Maxwell]

Buddy the biggest reason that they do finals in masters and FAI, is that they don't fly in front of the same judges unlike the Intermediate and advanced then you have the problem of finding more judges also according to the number of pilots you use in both classes, if you use 8 pilots and single flight lines and 3 rounds it wouldn't be over and all others would, if they use 2 flight lines then more judges just don't seem practical to me.
 No I don't fly advanced anymore for many reasons #1 because I feel like I have a short time to get as good as I can be at age 56, the last 3 years I have practiced the FAI pattern in the fall and feel I have learned much more than staying flying advanced, so now I only flying FAI not good at it but I learn something every time I fly, #2 I like the pattern changing every 2 years #3 not everyone and there brother have a say in what FAI do (less problems and headaches) #4 I never could get score down at the site 4 and from what I could see I was one of a few that was tring to emulate the FAI and Masters pilots, I proved this last year last day, by just doing fast rolls no finess at all just fast and stop my scores went up by 100 raw points I was told all years on site 4 that I was the only one that really ever showed good throttle management but still no scores #5 if I'm going to be last I'd rather be last in FAI than last in advanced.
