Well,
My phone's been ringing....Now I know you guys are reading this stuff and that you care. Here is an update. I added Cameron Smith to D-5. The same AMA District team won but with different pilots. :-)
AMA District Team Champions
Masters Team Champs
Position Name District
1. Ryan McLaughlin D-5
2. Cameron Smith D-5
4. A.C. Glen D-5
I also had a couple of calls asking how to make this a reality. Please be clear that I have no official role in any of the Nat's contest issues, so you should begin with Lamar Blair and Rusty Dose if you like the idea.
I would suggest that next year we capture the NSRCA District number of each pilot (Just use 21 for Canada) and plug the district number into a scores spreadsheet per class.
Sort the file by District, add the top three scores per district, and Bingo you have the National NSRCA Distinct Team Champions. Piece of cake to anyone who can spell Excel!
Regards,
Eric.

Jason,
Just for fun, and never being one to shy away from a challenge, here are the conceptual team champions for all of the classes that I could calculate.
This is just to show you (all) what could be done to add some excitement for those who do not always make it to the podium.
This is only for fun and is not mathematically confirmed/accurate. It is only based upon the names of the top few pilots who also gave me data sheets. I cross referenced their AMA districts. (Interestingly enough, some top pilots did not know to which AMA district they belonged to!) This should really be calculated by adding up the top three sets of pilot-points per district, but I had no option other than to use the highest positions.
AMA District Team Champions
Intermediate Team Champs
Position Name District
5. Gary Courtney D-5
6. Jon Lowe D-5
9. Robert Green D-5
Advanced Team Champs
Position Name District
1. Brett Wickizer D-6
4. Keith Black D-6
7. Chris Moon D-6
Masters Team Champs
Position Name District
1. Ryan McLaughlin D-5
3. A.C. Glen D-5
4. John Fuqua D-5
FAI - Not enough prelims info readily available or district id's to calculate three pilots.
As an FYI guys for next year..., IL, TX, AZ, OH and AR
are not AMA Districts!!!!!!!!!
Just for you Jason, and as another FYI for everyone else -
FAI progression was as follows for the top 5;
End of P-07 End of Semis F-07 Finals
Jason Sean QuiQue
Sean Quique Chip
QuiQue Jason Jason
Chip Don Don
Don Chip Sean
Most interesting how the unknowns sorts it all out - Hamm?
I could see a future where a couple of pilots encourage a third or fourth pilot to attend the Nat's so that they would have a team of three and therefore stand a chance of winning the Nationals team award for their class.
Regards,
Eric.

Eric,
I don't think it's unfair to ask George about this. There is no need to define a "team" or what the "team" would be flying against. There were 8 finalists (even though one was a Canadian) that flew well enough to be in the finals, and I would just like to see how we did in the P-07. Remember, the Team at the Worlds is determined by P-07, and hypothetically looking at P-07 we would see who did the best (in George's eye) in P-07. Again, please remember, this is all for FUN and nothing more.
Also, when are you going to have the District results for us Eric... it's only Excel...lol.
Regards,
Jason

Jason,
Ref. "Hey George, if you feel like it, how about posting the results of the Finalists P-07 rounds? See how a "Team" would have done."
It's a bit unfair to ask Georgie to do that because he can't do it unless you, a) define a team and, b) define what teams that team would be flying against.
At one time I was hoping that we would have District team awards in our FAI prelims and in each of the other classes. It would have been great to see which districts won a "National" team title. It did not have to be an AMA award but just like our district individual District champions it would have added a nice flavor. I think it was a wee bit too radical at the time.
You could do it now. All you have to do is add up the top three scores from each district in each class. You could do it in Excel in about four minutes if you had the results files and plugged in a district column.
One for Rusty Dose perhaps?
Regards,
Eric.
