  It may not be an emergency at many sites, but those who attended the Knoxville contest will probably agree that it is.

    Ron, and All
     
    This is a really good question. In fact it has been added to the rules survey to find out what pattern flyers think about the idea. 
     
    The new survey will be going out to at least 1000 plus people, both  NSRCA and Non-NSRCA members.
     
    This is not an emergency that needs fixing in a hurry.
     
    I hope that you will hold off on your proposal until we get an answer back from everyone. I also hope that you will have Don Ramsey and some others look over the wording of your proposal so that we do not run into the problems that we are having with the 2005-7 Take-offs and Landing language.
     
    BTW - I support the change, but we must be careful of the wording and not have to turn around and submit another proposal to fix one that is submitted without some NSRCA process and attention.

      Subject: Landing Direction

      Based on the positive response on the proposed change to landing direction, I sent my draft landing direction rule change proposal to John Fuqua, the Contest Board chairman, and he replied:

      "How about this.  Suggest you put this as para 6.7 which is the 'Safety Requirements" section. 

      "Normally landing would be as per paragraph 14.1 regarding Direction of Flight.  However, when a wind shift results in a downwind landing that creates a hazard to people or the aircraft, subject to the approval of the judges, the landing direction may be reversed.

      (or maybe)

      "Normally landing would be as per paragraph 14.1 regarding Direction of Flight.  However, subject to the approval of the judges, the landing direction may be reversed when a wind shift results in a downwind landing that creates a hazard to people or the aircraft."

      I prefer the second one and will make an Emergency Proposal as soon as I can put it together.
