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.

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


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
