if a mistake was made, we own it. I was there when the vote was made. If
someone had thoughts to continue the contest it could have been brought up. Many
people were there earlier and had left the field for one reason or another (not
necessarily to go home, but to kill time). <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>Looking back, I think that there is room
for improvement. Perhaps the best thing to do was for the CD’s to be at
the field at the correct time for starting the contest no matter what the
conditions are, and not let anyone leave for any reason if there is a
cancellation concern. This way they can work to keep all pilots in the area so
a debate can be heard. A decision could then be made to allow folks to check
out of there hotel room and meet back at the field to see if any flying could
be done. This would allow everyone the flexibility to check back in a hotel if
we hold the contest without the risk of any unnecessary loss of money by not
checking out.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>“People needing to leave early on
Sunday”, is not a good argument to cancel a contest if the rain is bad on
Saturday… If you can get a contest in regardless of the time on Sunday’s
end, provided the majority of folks want it, then that is what should be done. My
point is that everybody knows their own situation. For those who took the time
and made the commitment to stick it out, they deserve to have a full contest benefit
even if it’s a couple of rounds to make a contest.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

cancellation. I would have been ok with either call. If a cancellation is immanent,
the sooner it’s called the better. It’s always easier to second
guess the decision after the fact knowing how it turned out. I wonder how many
people would be ticked if the Muncie contest wasn’t cancelled and we
couldn’t get any rounds in due to rain on Sunday also? Lisa and I stayed
in the area. There wouldn’t have been enough time to get a complete round
in on Saturday for all classes. I don’t know about Sunday.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

in the future I am watching this thread closely. I make it to all the contests
that I can afford the time and money to attend. I was at <st1:place

started at around 2:30am. It was still raining steady at 10am with no clearing
in sight. I would not want to stand around all day in the rain for the outside
chance that the weather would clear long enough to get a round or two in. The forecast
for Sunday was for a better chance of rain. I think Tom and Frank did the right
thing calling the contest and let everyone salvage there weekend.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

or start a contest, I work third shift and have to be at work at midnight
Sunday. That means if I get started to a contest at 7am and awards are given
around 7pm and I have a 2 to 3 hour drive, it doesn’t leave much family
and rest time before work. Taking Monday’s off for may be OK for some but
others like me get paid for being there, if I don’t work I lose a days
pay. No pay equals upset family and no hobby funds.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

up early on Sunday at contests. When people with families travel a distance,
4-6 hours to a contest and leave at a late hour to be getting up at 5am for
work and school for children next day makes for reason not to attend that
contest in future. I know if a contest did that repeatedly I would stop
attending it. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:

didn't at least attempt to wait till the afternoon and get in 2 flights. I've
been told that someone actually stayed and flew in the afternoon. We had
people that drove some long distances that dissevered a better attempt.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

did it become a rule that we have to be done very early on Sundays also. I
remember <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Rough</st1:PlaceName> <st1:PlaceType
w:st="on">River</st1:PlaceType></st1:place> in 1987 waiting out the rains on a
Sunday and having the award ceromony in the dusk. Bottom line is we got in a
contest. This go home early stuff is bad.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>Well, the D4-D5 shootout was a washout. Rained all day<br>
today in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Muncie</st1:City></st1:place>
with a high probability of the same<br>
tomorrow. In a joint decision between D4 and D5, it<br>
was decided to award the Ryder trophy to D5 due to<br>
their tremendeous effort in recruiting pilots to<br>
represent their district this year. They outnumbered<br>
us handily, and would have probably prevailed had we<br>
had the opportunity to fly. Congratulations and good<br>
work!<br>
<br>
I might add that dinner last night on the patio at the<br>
Texas Roadhouse was another one to remember, great<br>
friends and great food. <br>
<br>
The gauntlet has been thrown, it is on D4 to get the<br>
pilots to <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Muncie</st1:City></st1:place>
next summer to win back the trophy.<br>
