[NSRCA-discussion] Proposed 2015 sequences

[Atwood, Mark]

Integrated rolling maneuvers were only introduced to FAI in the last 10 years.  Over that time Masters has stayed fairly stagnant with regard to any type of new maneuver or difficulty.  I was flying masters when they introduced 2 rolls in opposite directions and we all had a similar thought… “I have to roll the OTHER way???  This isn’t FAI….”   We adjusted.

The gap between Masters and FAI is growing rapidly.  If we want Masters to prepare pilots for FAI than we need to keep the gap reasonable.  Yes, Masters is a destination for some.  So is Advanced…heck, so is Intermediate.  But that doesn’t change their primary purpose of being stepping stones to improve our flying, culminating with FAI.

Several masters pilots at the NATS indicated they would return to advanced because of the roller...It was indicated that who cares how easy it might be masters is not FAI ..

An hour glass in advanced seemed a bit much for that class imo..
