<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Del,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I've flown in quite a few Nats under the current format,
mostly in Masters in recent years. I made the Finals twice and didn't make the
Finals way more times than that, including this year. The only time I ever
felt gypped was under the old format in 1990 when time constraints resulted in
the Advanced class only flying 5 rounds instead of 6. The current system
really works very well for a variety of reasons. I guess it depends on your
mindset. I'm going there to win. When I don't, which has been the case so far,
not making the Finals and only flying 4 rounds shows me everything I need to
know to get ready for next year. But that's just me. It's also great to see
old friends, many of whom I only get to see at the Nats.</FONT></DIV>

NATS advanced question</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Wanted to run this past you all to
see what your thoughts were on this. We know that Advanced
is suppose to prepare you for Masters, what if the advanced at the
NATS took a similar route to what the masters does; meaning that
the top 8 guys in masters get to fly in a 4
round final. What if advanced had a 3 round final,
and the best score was carried over from the previous 4
rounds. I was thinking that this would certainly make
things a little more interesting for the Adavnced
folks. Questions and comments are
welcomed. </FONT></DIV>
