that time was the only AMA class that flew turn around and inside the box. The
current advance is about the same as it was. So for some odd reason they
decided to delete Expert TA and change all classes to turn around and Expert
got renamed Advanced. Expert TA schedule was almost identical to the first
version of FAI. A lot of contests then didn&#8217;t fly FAI as it wasn&#8217;t
an AMA class. Most fliers back then were dead set against flying Turn Around.
The powers to be didn&#8217;t listen and went with it anyway. Probably the best
decision but back then it sure caused a lot of fights.Go figure<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

they're teaching the lessons to be learned. The schedules below masters aren't
and shouldn't be designed for someone to camp there. The goal is to learn what
you need on your way to masters or fai with the realization that there will
still be plenty more to learn once you get there. I like Jon Lowe's idea of flying

So ...... is it possible to keep that Sportsman schedule and change
Intermediate on a pretty regular basis and still address the process of
preparation???&nbsp; I think it is....&nbsp; I'm of the opinion that there is
nothing wrong with someone flying Intermediate year after year if that
addresses their interest,&nbsp;preparation, and skill&nbsp;level.&nbsp;
Ideally, all sequences would prepare for the next level.&nbsp; The difficulty
in addressing this in the Advanced/Masters situation is that Advanced needs to
be the step up from Intermediate and Masters needs to be challenging enough to
address the many flyers that don't go on to FAI <strong><b><font face=Arial><span
style='font-family:Arial'>and yet</span></font></b></strong>, prepare Masters
pilots for FAI!&nbsp;&nbsp;It's really a very complicated domino effect.&nbsp;
In looking at all the schedules, it&nbsp;appears&nbsp;to me that we are missing
a class between Advanced and Masters.....used to be between Intermediate
and&nbsp;Advanced.....&nbsp; that's the educator in me talking.&nbsp; Using the
four AMA classes, it's really difficult to have the nice step we have now from
Sportsman to Intermediate at all levels....... it is, however, with exchanges
like we're having now, possible!</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

agreement with what is being discussed with regard to the time frames - it is

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:51.0pt'><font size=3 color=black
face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt;color:black'>Hey Ed,<br>
<br>
Not trying to argue a moot point, but you commented that &quot;even if it does<br>
take 2 years, it really doesn't have to&quot;...&nbsp;&nbsp;That's the part I
think you're <br>
missing.<br>
<br>
Even IF we could create, test,survey and decide on a new sequence in a<br>
DAY...the AMA REQUIRES it 2 years in advance of it being flown.<br>
<br>
So the solution we are offering is to remove the sequences as part of the <br>
&quot;Rules&quot;...that would allow us to use a process as you describe to<br>
efficiently alter a sequence.&nbsp;&nbsp;So basically...I agree with you
100%...we<br>
need a good process.&nbsp;&nbsp;But the best process is still stymied if we
have to <br>
push it through an AMA rule change cycle.<br>
<br>
As it stands now, a rule change submitted in October of this year...wouldn't<br>
have a chance of being included in the rules until January of
2011.&nbsp;&nbsp;I find<br>
that to be absurd...but that's the guideline that the AMA has in place. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
