[NSRCA-discussion] The NATS schedule has been published on theNSRCA website

[Dave Lockhart]

Mike M -
I understand (and agree with) the Masters fliers sentiment of wanting to fly
in the morning, and alternate years.  That does seem fair.  However, I think
it is also important to understand that the prior years FAI has been in the
morning to best accommodate the logistics of all classes.  It has nothing to
do with elitism, and to the best of my knowledge it was not something that
was ever requested by the FAI flyers.  A similar situation is Site 1 vs Site
3 (the cross runway on Site 3 throws off more than a couple people every
year).  Masters is now flown on Site 3 to avoid the rolling circle issue.
Again, logistics, and it is what makes sense.

Mike K -
Yep, it does stay light out plenty late, and prior NATs management made it
perfectly clear that flying late in the day on finals day was not an option.

Regards,

Dave Lockhart

For what its worth, doesn't make much of a difference to me.  The Masters
guys have had to endure the afternoon heat, etc. for the past few years, so
switching it up seems fair.

I understand Dave L's thoughts on the FAI finals, but as long as we can get
judges willing to stay into the evening if necessary to finish a 4-round
finals, then let's just go with what's been published.  It stays light out
late this time of year and unless anyone.has found something that I haven't,
there isn't much night life that we'll all be missing :)

I'll do whatever I'm told......hey, should've thought of that when I was
married, lol.

See y'all at the Nats.....at whatever the appointed time turns out to be!
