<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>The idea around changing the routines each year is intended to
provide a little change for someone that fly's the same level for more than one
year. Since Sportsman and Intermediate are definitely not end levels like
Master where the same competitors fly them year after year after year, the
routines can be from a pool of pre approved routines. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>Three Sportsman routines can be developed and then rotated on a
3 year basis. Same for intermediate. For that matter, you could use
the past 3 different sportsman routines and just rotate them on a yearly basis.
This is nice because it doesn't requires a committee to come up with a routine
every year for those levels. Advanced might also fall into this category
as well, but definitely not Masters. They need a routine committee
because pilots can be in that class for years and years and change to keep
things interesting would definitely be needed.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

guys if you are going to change the schedules every year you need to change the

advanced prematurely. But we kind of have that problem now.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
