  OK Larry, I'm starting to think you're a "mole" just posing as a newbie to
try and stir up trouble! VBG.

  You've just touched on another highly charged topic. (DON'T PEE ON THAT
THIRD.... ZZZAP!)

  That's pretty good for a "newbie" (I'm starting to wonder ;-) ), two fire
storms in just two questions.

  LOL.

  The short answer, make two 180 degree turns and land on the runway without
rolling off the side or pieces flying off your airplane and you'll get a
ten.  Notice, that I didn't say you couldn't crash on the runway, to do so
is entirely legal and you'll still get a ten as long as all parts stay in
tack.

  This is up for a vote by the Contest Board this summer and "should" be
changed back to scoring from 1 to 10, but you never know.

    I have another few newbie Sportsman questions if I may - hopefully not
as controversial as the "electric weight" issue :)

    After the Double Immelman without rolls (U) I will be flying upwind and
then exit the box if I am understanding this correctly.

    How should I get from there to landing?

    I am assuming a simple flat 180 deg turn (away from the flight line)
from the upwind leg to down wind followed by a normal landing approach?

    What parts of that entire procedure are judged?

    On the actual landing - the rules talk about two lines 100 meters apart.
Do I need to touch the ground inside those two lines and/or roll to a stop
within those two lines?

    Thanks!

    Larry
