[NSRCA-discussion] One day contests

[John Pavlick]

I can fly the 402 or 403 schedule twice in one flight with an OS160 and
18oz. of fuel. I have yet to see an airplane that can't fly the Sportsman
schedule twice and even fewer that are so impeccably trimmed that the little
bit of "extra" fuel that's required to do this would spoil the flight. Just
grab a 40-size Ugly Stik (more than capable of flying the 401 schedule) and
give it a try. <LOL>

  I know IMAC is a four letter word here, but IMAC flies two sequences per
flight. I believe if the pilot requests it, they can land and refuel if
necessary.

  I'm not even going to comment on scored takeoffs and landings. My butt
hairs are still crisp from that one!!!

  I routinely flew two sequences per flight in practice, even in Masters,
with a 1.20 and a 16 oz tank. Only when I had to fight wind did I run out of
fuel.

  FWIW.

    If they have a flame out due to low fuel on the second sequence do you
allow them to land and refuel and fly again?
