[NSRCA-discussion] Proposed Masters Sequence for 2009/2010

[Del K. Rykert]

Proposed Masters Sequence for 2009/2010And changes every 2 or 3 years are detrimental to the causal fliers who try to participate. They won't come to contest and participate till they have a chance to get familiar with the sequence. Some don't have coaches and chance to fly more than once a week if weather cooperates.

  Are you certain that you really can change the schedule without waiting out the rules cycle?

  The lower classes had to endure 6 years of the same schedule because the Contest Board refused to act on anything other than emergency proposals in the interim. Many of the Advanced flyers elected just to stand down. 

  You have just pointed to advantage the IMAC discipline has over Pattern with AMA...

  I hope you can pull it off because the existing conditions are detrimental to the game.

    Over the past couple of months we (the NSRCA board) have received a number of comments about the Masters sequence that was selected in 2005.  We heard that the sequence had too many snaps, turnaround maneuvers did not allow positioning of the plane (in or out) after the 5th maneuver, and that the difficulty level from Advanced to Masters was further increased.  There was also an error in the schedule in that one would come out of the Double Immelman (#10) inverted and head into the Humpty Bump (pull-push-pull) and head into the ground based on the description.  The Masters schedule was published in the July 2005 issue of the K-Factor (Option A on page 25) - in lists.nsrca.org/mailman/listinfo/nsrca-discussion
