<br>
<font size=2 face=sans-serif><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:sans-serif'>Flying
slower makes sense for most of us as it does allow much more time and is easier
to get the geometry correct. Flying the entire sequence at full throttle is not
a downgrade if it is smooth and graceful and all geometry is executed properly.
The problem lay in the fact that many say that if it is not slow then it is not
S&G, or one step further, if all aspects are not the same speed then it is
not S&G. This is not in the rules, and that is a problem. </span></font>
<br>
<font size=2 face=sans-serif><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:sans-serif'>Hopefully,
when that judge told you that you would have flown better if you had flown
slower, he meant so you could be smoother or get better geometry, but I cringe
to think that some judge downgraded you because he thought you flew above his
imaginary speed limit....that is what needs to stop.</span></font> <br>
<font size=2 face=sans-serif><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:sans-serif'>By
the way...I get downgraded too because my uplines are faster than my horizontal
lines. Its a quirk in my brain that I am trying to fix, because I know
that when I fix it I will be flying better.....but its not in the rules! Certain
guys in our district always hit me with this , and I am proud to say that I
never retaliate in the chair. I find it better to somehow charge a beer to
their account at the Saturday night dinner without them knowing. That is true
revenge for makin' up the rules...............</span></font> <br>

Gray, <br>
You could not be more correct . A number of times I've been told by a judge I
would have <br>
scored better if I'd have flown slower. <br>

Fred you probably are correct, your scores will suffer. Daves point is (and my
installing exclaimations points) that this is not in the rules and any of you
that are judging per this criteria are wrong and are damaging our beloved
hobby. Be fair people and follow the rules, not your bias, as you will
never know what the other judge's bias could possibly be...and I have heard
many idiotic based judging bias. <br>
By the way I conducted a study, employed IPDS and produced a matrix that
proves that such judging bias is the reason why the number of pattern flyers
has steadily decreased over the last 20 years. If you wanna increase our
numbers eliminate judges who do not follow the rules, it will be approximately
74.571% more effective than creating a "new rule" eliminating 2M
planes from lower classes.</span></font> <br>
