I like the idea of especially at that contest, starting Friday afternoon..maybe even something to consider for ComAir as well. Both have HUGE turnouts and this would get in 6 rounds easily. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

he norm. Forget<BR>> weather…we get the same issue at the district<BR>> championship regarding flying a 6th round. With 40+<BR>> contestants, and 2 flight lines, with an average of<BR>> 9 minutes per pilot, it takes 3 hours per round. <BR>> With GREAT weather… that’s 9 hours of flying both<BR>> days with no breaks.

That seems to be<BR>> unacceptable to most anymore. I realize that many<BR>> come from a great distance for this event (we like<BR>> to think it’s all about the steak roast and night<BR>> fly!

Bob Kane often chooses to sacrifice the<BR>> first round of Sunday flying to attend church… I<BR>> guess my point is maybe Mike’s right…and we have to<BR>> weight the “Contest” as a whole more heavily… and<BR>> do our very best to complete them. The pilot<BR>> “vote” has value, but let’s face it…there’s a lot of<BR>> peer pressure from those who’s current standings<BR>> won’t change, or maybe even those that will, but who<BR>> are in the better position at present…to call it a<BR>> day.<BR>> <BR>> Let’s face it…MOST of the time, we’re able to<BR>> finish up 6 rounds by 2pm or so….so it’s not a big<BR>> deal most contests.

I was there when the<BR>> vote was made. If someone had thoughts to continue<BR>> the contest it could have been brought up. Many<BR>> people were there earlier and had left the field for<BR>> one reason or another (not necessarily to go home,<BR>> but to kill time). <BR>> <BR>> Looking back, I think that there is room for<BR>> improvement. Perhaps the best thing to do was for<BR>> the CD’s to be at the field at the correct time for<BR>> starting the contest no matter what the conditions<BR>> are, and not let anyone leave for any reason if<BR>> there is a cancellation concern. This way they can<BR>> work to keep all pilots in the area so a debate can<BR>> be heard. A decision could then be made to allow<BR>> folks to check out of there hotel room and meet back<BR>> at the field to see if any flying could be done.<BR>> This would allow everyone the flexibility to check<BR>> back in a hotel if we hold the contest without the<BR>> risk of any unnecessary loss of money by not<BR>> checking out.<BR>> <BR>> “People needing to leave early on Sunday”, is not<BR>> a good argument to cancel a contest if the rain is<BR>> bad on Saturday… If you can get a contest in<BR>> regardless of the time on Sunday’s end, provided the<BR>> majority of folks want it, then that is what should<BR>> be done. My point is that everybody knows their own<BR>> situation. For those who took the time and
made the<BR>> commitment to stick it out, they deserve to have a<BR>> full contest benefit even if it’s a couple of rounds<BR>> to make a contest.<BR>> <BR>> I’m on the fence with regards to the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Muncie</st1:City></st1:place><BR>> cancellation. I would have been ok with either call.<BR>> If a cancellation is immanent, the sooner it’s<BR>> called the better.

I wonder how many people would be ticked<BR>> if the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Muncie</st1:City></st1:place> contest wasn’t cancelled and we<BR>> couldn’t get any rounds in due to rain on Sunday<BR>> also?
