F3A judges for local comps

[Jay Marshall]

I see little correlation between an arthritic thumb and a sharp eye and
mind. With proper training and desire there is no reason why anyone could
not learn to be a good judge. The ability to "see" what's going on with the
airplane as a whole improves with judging time and experience, not stick
time. Someone who, for any number of reasons, no longer flys and has never
moved beyond Advanced could still remain involved in the sport and be well
qualified to judge FAI. This is true of many "judging" occupations. In fact
I would bet the majority of sport judges never reached the levels which they
are now judging.
