[NSRCA-discussion] Nat's finals -> Muncie site preparation, grass site?

[Bob Kane]

I don't know if anybody took a ride to the grass site, I know I did not. The weather has been very wet so all the grass is tall, no fault of the maintenance staff.

Verne,
 
What about the grass site (4 I think?), any improvements 
there?  That site has been troublesome in the past to the Intermediate and 
Advanced pilots due to the grass length during the Nationals.  

 
Wonder if there are plans to prepare it any differently to 
better facilitate and minimize risk to contestants practicing for the the 
Worlds and for NATs competition.
 
Regards,
 
Glen Watson

Speaking 
of which, I was just at the AMA site last weekend for the annual D4/D5 contest. 
All the asphalt on the runways has been resurfaced and they’re about ¾ of the 
way done resurfacing the roadways within the AMA site. Flying off of new asphalt 
is about as good as it gets!  
   
The 
box lines haven’t been painted yet but I’m sure they’ll be done long before the 
F3A World’s and our Nats. I asked Bill Pritchett if he’d try and influence the 
markings on Site 3 since it’s always been confusing and the western-most station 
is just wrong. Bill’s going to see what he can do since he’s a full-time AMA 
employee as well as a very good pattern pilot. 
   
Things 
are looking up for the World’s and the Nats!!!

Jarvis, 
   
The 
NSRCA does not get the $100 from your entry fee… it only gets a portion of 
it.  Traditionally only places 1 thru 6th have been given 
trophies in Intermediate and Advanced…
