[NSRCA-discussion] WC '07

[Ken Thompson]

That works really well during the normal Sportsman sequence.  However, 
during the unknowns, when I'm not familiar with the maneuver or the 
sequence, I found it much more valuable to concentrate on the next maneuver 
in the schedule.  I guess I'm not as able as many, to be able to see the 
maneuvers the night before and be able to be as helpful as many seasoned 
IMAC fliers.
During the regular season it was a different story, being at the TAS is 
another pressure cooker altogether.

Remember...I'm just an Intermediate Pattern pilot...I'm not as good as most 
of you.
