how about changing the AMA advancemant rule and keep it very simple? <br>
Your first contest of the year will determine your class for the year.
You may go up one class at any time during the year but may not go back
down during the year. At the start of the next year you may drop back
one class at your option, stay where you are or go up a class.<br>
This is simple enough that your fellow competitiors will know if you
are following the rules. It will also be up to your fellow competitiors
to insure that you are not sandbagging.<br>
I also feel strongly that sandbagging in Masters should not be allowed.
If you disregard Sportsman, then half of the classes allow parking.
Obviously, F3A has to be a parking lot but I see no reason to allow
this behavior in Masters. As a competant advanced pilot of somewhat
advanced years, I have very little interest in moving to Masters in
order to spend the rest of my pattern years trying to break 900 against
the parkers.<br>
I fail to see the logic in having two destination classes. Shouldn't we
all aspire to progress to FAI? The current Masters schedule is designed
as a stepping stone to Masters. Let's use it that way.<br>

<div>There was a proposal on the last rules cycle that would allow a
person to move up and test his ability then move back if he had not
attained the skills required for the higher class. I personally think
it is a good idea and I also see no need for the point system like
someone said if someone abuses the privilege we can solicit Earl and
four other guys his size to take him behind the barn and splain to him
why he will be moving up. I believe peer pressure is all the control we
need.</div>
<div>I think this is worth a try. </div>
