<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. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Ask John about what he was thinking re. the Sunday late comer
possibility. I don't know.</DIV>
<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

have never attended a 1 day event in all my years of competing.
If they were close by that might make it viable.</FONT></DIV>

[NSRCA-discussion] contest</DIV>
<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>
