<DIV><BR></DIV>Del/Terry get a life. Frankly he did what was in his right to
do. And I'm sure he discussed his plans for the contest at the pilots
meeting. I wasn't there but I bet everyone understood and accepted the
CD's decision. You failed to realize they probably lost money running the
event due to low turnout anyway. Also, he has to consider the club. Would you
want your local field closed for use two days just for 10 guys from out of
town? He may have saved his contest for next year by doing so. He helped our
cause for better or worse.<BR> <BR>So Del, when are you going to show
your face at a contest? Don't remember the last time I saw
you<g><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Hi Ed..</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial> As I recall it is in the CD packet
you receive when you take your test to become a CD. It was many years ago
that I became a CD so I may be confused on it being in the packet. The rub
would come if a AMA filed a protest against a CD for advertising an event
that they didn't follow through to provide as advertised. All AMA sanctions
have guidelines. If you mislead/change or don't follow the sanction
guidelines you can have disciplinary measures taken against the
CD.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Oh heck, I couldn't resist, so I went back to try to find the place
in the rules where it says a CD can't shorten the contest. I
couldn't find it. I found things like he can't cancel it for
low attendance, which didn't happen. But nothing about clipping a
day off the end after a sufficient number of rounds has been flown, with
the consent of all contestants PRESENT. Please provide the passage
for review, because I don't see it anywhere.</DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Terry is correct. The CD guidelines are
very clear regarding any changes to a sanctioned event that are
advertised. They do have to follow the format that was advertised.
Acts of GOD & severe weather are acceptable exceptions.

<DIV>Ask John about what he was thinking re. the Sunday late comer

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Anyway, I think the CD does have this type of discretion.
There's a point at which you are putting contestants who did show up
on the advertised start date and time in position where they would
have to incur the additional time and expense of the 2nd day for no
useful purpose from their point of view. We got 5 rounds in
without breaking a sweat. That's a complete contest. I think
he made a good decision and he also discussed it with us
first.</DIV>

<DIV>When John made that decision did he consider that there may
be a flyer who could only make it Sunday?? At one point that
option was one I considered. I had a birthday party for my 3 year
old grandson in CT, and I gave consideration to coming home Sunday
by way of the contest. Needless to say, I would have been really
P*****d if I had gotten there just to find out that it had been
turned into a one day affair. That is NOT following AMA guidelines
for a contest adminstration. The CD MUST adhear to the advertised
event schedule.</DIV>

<DIV>This was actually scheduled as a 2 day contest. Due
to the low attendance, John Tarpinian elected to make it a one
day contest, which worked out quite well.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Anyway, I agree with George's assessment. It's a
really nice field with some minor runway obstacles to keep in
mind, but for all practical purposes, they don't exist due to
the CD instructions on how landings are to be scored (anywhere
on a very long runway is a 10). We had a great time
flying, the hospitality from the club was great and overall, it
was an event I will want to return to. </DIV>

get back to competing that is a long way to go for a one day

I have never attended a 1 day event in all my years of

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>For all the guys in D1 that
missed the Hadley contest on Saturday I want to express my
disappointment at the absence of your presence at what was a
terrific time.Ed Alt was the only guy that showed up from
the N.J. contingent and was a great help as judge, caller,
and certainly the premiere performer of the day with really
notable performances from Scott Smith with his new electric
Patriot with the Hacker 60 up front. I felt that everyone
flew well and would have loved to have had more
representation in each class. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Due to the East facing
flightline we didn't get started as early as I would
have liked, but that was probably a blessing in
disguise as we probably would have had a 10 round
contest.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>As it was, the contest was a
very laid-back affair with wonderful temperatures and partly
sunny skies, a little breezy in the P.M., but handled easily
by everyone in attendance. Lots of lazy kibitzing under the
easy-ups all day.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The field was freshly mowed and
well prepped for even the lowest of prop clearances ( Walter
Erickson had about 3/4"). </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>One of the enticing features of
this event were the high dollar prizes awarded the winners.
Jim Quinn was overheard celebrating his $6K award for his
high placement in Master's.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In spite of my personal ban (
apparently the word had not gotten out) I was allowed to
judge 5 rounds in all classes which was very refreshing
after all these years. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The kindness extended to me was
very much appreciated as they allowed me to fly a class that
I was totally unqualified for in spite of the fact that I
came in dead last (in a field of one).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Great food was in abundance
both lunch and dinner and it was gratus. Nobody went home
hungry. John Tarpinian(C.D.) did an admirable job of putting
together a first rate event and even had a hat-draw raffle
at the end where everyone went home with something of value
(that's in addition to those high dollar placement
awards).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In attendance was the "New Kid"
in D1 competition, David Lampron, who took first in
Sportsman and at 13 years of age is going to be one to watch
in the next couple of years. David has a younger brother,
Dean, who I predict will follow in his brother's footsteps.
These 2 kids are the nicest young guys, respectful and
polite to a fault. David served as a maneuver caller for the
judges on many rounds and a little sister, Kelly worked
on the scoring program ( not as a runner, but the real
thing), she must have been about 9 or 10.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The field is a little tight on
one end and will make you pay attention on your landings,
but the overall surroundings are a very pleasant farmland
paradise. For the guys that passed this one up this
year, you really missed a great time.Be sure and put a big
star beside this one on next year's calendar.You'll be glad
you did.</FONT></DIV>
