What constitutes an FAI flyer.

[Ed Miller]

I don't understand all the emphasis on the FAI class when what we really need to do is promote and grow 401 through 403. If we don't find the ways and means to re-seed Pattern, flying 2 schedules in FAI will be a moot point.

  I had no intention of suggesting that we fly unknowns. This is too much to 
  expect a CD to deal with. The F-schedule is pre-known and can be pre-stored 
  in the PASS system.

  It just struck me that we have effectively reduced FAI from flying two 
  schedules down to one. (Unless you make a finals in the USA Nat's etc.)

  I don't see why we can't just decide to run a two-day contest with P-07 on 
  Saturday and F-07 on Sunday?  Maybe it is time to take some control of our 
  destiny.

  It is my considered opinion that flying Masters is as good as flying P-07 
  and there is not much differentiation between the two classes, especially if 
  you only fly one schedule each.

  Some have said that they found next year's Masters actually harder than the 
  FAI schedule. I can go out and try the F-schedule but will neither myself 
  nor most of us will ever get a chance to fly it in a contest.

  Regards,

  Eric.
