<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I actually score the track, just as at the D4
finals this year. We had very high winds on Saturday, right in your face,
stall turns at the end were a real problem with just the conditions you
describe. The planes had to yaw into the wind to maintain the track, which
is what I scored, the track.</FONT></DIV>

correction</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Hey everyone. While the season is winding down, Don Ramsey and
I had an interesting discussion this past weekend. Am wondering what
the general consensus is.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>First, let me state, judges are human and I understand that.
Also, many judges don't know the exact wording of many rules, I understant
that also.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Soooo</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Will a pilot score higher if they follow the letter of the law and
wind correct perfectly, but fly an ugly manuever, or wind correct a little
and let the plane look "prettier" in a manuever?????</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Lets use the first maneuver in the Master's sequence after entering
the box. Stall turn 1 1/4 rolls up, 3/4 rolls down exit
inverted. On a strong wind day, not pulling to vertical to maintain
the line doesn't look to bad (we expect that) the 1 1/4 rolls in centered,
looking good, appropriate rudder is given to maintain a straight vertical
line (again expected and usually doesn't require much as we are at full
throttle), the stall goes off without a hitch, but do to lack of airspeed
we cant the fuse and hold rudder into the wind letting the fuse lean at a
45degree angle to maintain a straight line (this is the part I'm curious
about) until the 3/4 roll and using a little down elevator to hold the
line after the roll (again expected but not ugly)</DIV>
<DIV>Everything about this manuever is done and doesn't detract from the
overall appearance of the manuever except the down line after the stall,
which is simply "UGLY"</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Just curious what everyone says. Again, I know what the rules
say, and am not interested in a rule book interpretation, but what do you
think about scoring better vs worse???</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanx</DIV>
