Dave Guerin, Nats event director, asked John Fuqua and me to do  
"courtesy" weight checks on Sunday, before official flying starts.   
We will be at the three sites, for about 30 minutes at each site, to  
check those who would like to have their airplanes weighed.  All  
airplanes will be weighed before trophy presentations for those who  
might get a trophy.

I do not know if Dave plans to do "courtesy" noise checks.  He  
normally asks site directors to be alert for "noisy" airplanes during  
each day's first round, so a noise check can be made on suspect  
airplanes during the day's second round.
