<DIV>At our contests here in D8, the Sportsman pilots fly two sequences per
flight. The take off/landing scores are used twice for scoring. In
essence, they are flying two rounds per flight. Seems like an easy way to
handle two one day contests.... The pilots can fly either day, or
fly both days and get in two contests for the weekend.... </DIV>

<DIV>So far from this discussion it seems to me that most of the die-hard
flyers (mostly in the upper classes) don't like the idea of a one day contest.
The one day contest would seem to appeal more to someone that wants to
try pattern, ie: someone entering the Sportsman class. Why not arrange it so
that a two-day event will have two one-day contests (maybe three rounds each
day) for just the Sportsman class, and all other classes will be the standard
two-day format.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Just a thought to throw out on the table.</DIV>

you're kind of in luck. Most Pattern Primers ARE one-day events.
Since<BR>you'll be flying in the Sportsman class, you can "compete" in a
Pattern<BR>Primer (usually only 401 & 402 are flown at a Primer). You'll
get your feet<BR>wet with a minimum amount of impact on the family. Pattern
Primers are good<BR>because you get the feel of competition but you also get
a lot of help from<BR>the experienced pilots. Go to a few of those if you
can.<BR><BR>John
