Mike,

In addition to what Tony F said....

I think one of the biggest considerations for the Prelims is that the judges
need to maintain a standard for 4 days, let alone variations in weather
conditions which can substantially affect maneuver quality.  I'd not expect
the prelims to be very accurate in terms of exact pilot placement -
especially when you consider the P-09 is relatively easy, and variables like
judging fatigue and weather are going to have more effect on the scores.

The judging should be more accurate for the semi's as all pilots will be
seen over a much shorter interval, and the F-09 has enough difficulty that
the maneuver quality will start to degrade pretty quickly outside the top
group.

For the finals, all pilots are seen over a relatively very short interval
(good thing), and the unknowns are certainly a different animal for the
pilots.  Some pilots certainly aren't as well suited for unknowns as knowns
- whether that is mindset or practice regimen, who knows.  I can't say for
other countries, but I know most of the top F3A guys in the US spend as much
time practicing unknowns as the knowns.

Regards,

Dave

 Very good stuff Dave. Question? Is there a carry over from the Prelims to
the Semi finals? Also is it fair to say that the Semi's and then the finals
seperate the men from the boys? I have heard that some of the top guys
excell at the semi's but suffer when the harder manuevers come into play.
Just wondering if anyone else has heard of this. Mike Mueller
