[NSRCA-discussion] Moving Along, Next Question on Masters

[Joe Lachowski]

Tim, there is only one thing that was not incorporated in the new Advanced that maybe should have been and that was 1 - 3 inverted entries or exits at the turnarounds otherwise everything else prepares you for Masters quite well.

Morning Gentlemen
 
After reading many responses and having some private chats with those I respect their opinions highly I’ve changed my mind on Masters having to move up. I no longer think so.
 
  This now creates a few new questions in my mind.
 

Are we to keep Masters at a level slightly less than FAI so we can keep those happy that are “Parked” there?
 

Do we make Masters a proper (Building) stepping stone between  Advance and FAI?
 
Right now I believe the fellows that designed the Advance schedule did a wonderful job bridging the gap between Int and Advance.
I think the jump from Advance to Masters is a bit big. Barring adding a classes between Masters/Advance, which I don’t think anyone wants, how do we do both?
 
If we “dumb down” Masters to make the jump from Advance to Masters flow better on the skills set required then we might very well bore those that have been in masters for awhile. If we don’t do we relegate those moving up to Masters several years of practice to get competitive? Maybe this is the answer, make the jump so hard it takes awhile to learn the skill set, or it just could be a dropping out point fliers won’t bother to try to go beyond. Yeah I know, “If it was easy even a cavemen could do it”  J
 
Opinions?
 
Pros/Cons
 
Tim
