[NSRCA-discussion] Mandatory Advancment

Unknowns are a fair idea. Most of us long timers in the sport have 
flown most maneuvers in the book and could execute an unknown sequence 
reasonably well if we had a caller who was on the ball.

The main problem I see with unknowns is judging them correctly. My 
concern isn't with judges with routinely judge F3A and Masters 
Finals....these folks have a pretty good grasp on judging nuances in 
general, which include unknown sequences (in F3A anyway). BUT can the 
same be said for the everyday folks who attend the contests to fly and 
are also tapped to judge? I'm not so sure.

Well, just think Ron, now all your competitors would be doing the same 
- at least for one flight. Doesn't that seem more fair?

I'm in the Master class and I fly unknowns all the time.  Just ask my  
caller, John Fuqua, and he'll tell you that I rarely know what's next.
