[NSRCA-discussion] Attention D4 - Columbus Contest

[mike mueller]

 Man, Verne you got that right about NOTAM's being issued this summer. We can expect a good share of them.
 We in Chicgao have the upcoming G8 summit.

 It's in May but they are expecting it to be a big disruptive deal. Good thing is I'm joining a club that's outside of the NOTAM for Ohare or I won't get in any flying this summer. 
 In a perfect world we coordinate dates between North Eastern D5 and D4. It's not always going to work out perfectly. Mike

Based on past practice, a week before the Nats (Team Selection) will be crunch time for Andrew and me with every day, all day practicing. 
 
The one thing I’ve learned about Father’s Day through the years is that it’s not really about the father. We, I, don’t really have much to say about what we get to do on “our” day. In short, I don’t think either weekend is going to work for me, but I’m just one contestant.
 
I like the idea of coordinating as much as possible with D5 but I don’t think total coordination is going to be possible without diminishing contests in both districts. Another consideration is projected gas prices this summer which is looking a bit ominous. The other impact which is totally unpredictable is a contest being shut down at the last second by no fly directives in a presidential election year. Detroit and Chicago vicinities will likely be impacted by that.

Importance: High
 
Here is the D4 Schedule as I understand it:
 
June 9 & 10  - Muncie
June 23 & 24 - East Wings
June 30 & July 1st – Hoffman Estates D5
July 14 & 15 – Columbus, OH Tentative
July 23 – 29 – NATS
Aug 11 & 12 – Weak Signals
Aug 25 & 26 St. Clairsville
Sept 8 & 9 – RCCD
D4 Champs either Sept 22 & 23 at Hebron or Sept 29 & 30 at Muncie
 
That gives us 5 contests if we don’t have the Columbus contest and you don’t fly the NATS and you don’t go to Hoffman Estates.
 
If we have them all that gives us 9 contests.
 
My question is would those who attend the NATS likely attend a contest July 14 & 15 in Columbus given the NATS are 8 days later?
 
Thanks
