George,

Where did you find the P/F-07 sequences? I couldn't find the new or old
ones.

Seeing as the morning temperatures were somewhat moderate
(approaching 50o) I decided to sneak off to the field and fly
probably one of the last times before we find ourselves in the grip
of Glacier Bay for the next 3 months.
Earlier this morning I went to the web site and downloaded the P-07
schedule, so I decided to go and fly the P-05 schedule for the last
time, which I did and it went off uneventfully, although it was a
little unpolished. When I was on the web site I noticed that if you
click on schedules in the menu bar you get schedules from a few
years back, which should probably be looked at by the web team, as
somebody new to the sport could really be led astray pretty
easily.There are also a few other items that could probably be made
a little more intuitive. Even though we are an AMA affiliate, most
of the contests that I have attended include F3A, but when you go to
the schedules summarization there is no hint of an FAI class, just
Sportsmen, Intermediate, Advanced, and Masters. Took me quite a
while to find F3A on our site.I think it would make things a little
easier if it followed Masters.There are also some things that
probably need to be deleted.
Aaaanyyyhhooooww, .........got a little sidetracked there,
...........after I got home from the flying field I decided to look
over the P-07 sequence to see if I could understand it and I was a
little apprehensive about some of the maneuvers. Seems to me that I
remember somebody commenting that they thought it a little easier
than the P-05 sequence. I'm not sure that I can concur with this
viewpoint. Now, I realize that my opinions, at this point in time,
are based on a cursory observance, however, there are some pretty
nasty requirements contained therein. Aaannnd......, once again, too
quick a reaction I know, I didn't feel that the F sequence looked as
tough, but like I say, I'm sure, given more time to digest this
stuff, my opinions will probably change. Nothing hard and fast here,
.....just wanted to air out my brain as there wasn't much on the
list.
