Tom,<br>

The NSRCA website says overseas dues are 40 USD when K-Factor is online
only. Probably should be even less to encourage overseas participation
and since overseas dues are gravy if K-Factor is online only.<br>
Are your dollar quotes USD or AUD?<br>
<br>
For everyone else <br>
Aussie dollar is currently about 0.63 dollars US. <br>
current Sydney petrol price for Shell regular= 1.159 AUD/liter =
1.159 * 4 / 1.05 * 0.63 = 2.78 USD/gallon<br>
<br>
What is your homebrew cost for 30%DZ fuel using coolpower oil? I
assume that is the regular 2-stroke oil we used to use rather than the
low-viscosity heli oil?<br>
<br>
The APA website says Jason is going to be at the KraftMasters this
year. First trip, Jason? You'll love it.<br>
<br>
When I was there, Peter Goldsmith and a team that will remain nameless
put cable ties on the driveshaft of the Canadian team van. They were
sweating bullets all the way back to the airport wondering if the van
was going to make it. Beware of practical jokers. Just enjoy massive
quantities of great beer and new friends.<br>

Jim,<br>
<br>
When this subject came up lst year I suggested looking into the
advancement system the Australian Pattern Association uses to address
the issues you are bringing up. Their system is maintained by the APA
which maintains the status of each pilot attending any sanctioned
contests. In Australia you earn advancement to the next class by
beating a national standard (raw score) three times in a running
12month period. They have 4 classes (FAI,Expert, Advanced and
Sportsman). Since the APA is keeping track of all competitor's
advancement status, there is no honor system or bookkeeping issues for
the competitor. Since advancement is based on national scoring averages
of the FAI(Masters) community, the quality of the local competition in
the individual classes is removed(mostly) from the class advancement
criteria. Also, advancement of the top flyer in a class locally has no
impact on the advancement of the remaining competitors in that class.<br>
I flew under this system for a couple of years and it works quite well.
The biggest problem, as always, was fair and honest judging.
Typically, classes were judged by competitors in the next higher class
and there was a tendency to keep lower class competitors down on the
farm.<br>
More more information on the Australian advancement system, go to <a
class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://www.australianpatternassociation.com.au"

and drill down to rules and then MAAA Rules, scroll down to R/C
Aerobatics Grading System to get a complete description.<br>

change survey is for ALL who are interested in pattern (RC Aerobatics).
We can't emphasize this enough. For those who haven't been around
longer than dirt, the objective of the NSRCA is to gain some
consensuses within the pattern community regarding rule change
proposals. This process reduced the total number of proposals the AMA
change process needed to deal with, many of which were in conflict or
adversely affecting each other, greatly complicating the re-right
between the first and second AMA votes. At least I think that is how it
was. It's been a while! In any case individuals can still make change
proposals directly to AMA. To my knowledge AMA rules are not controlled
or dictated by any special interest group.<O:P></O:P></span></font></span></p>

style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">While out for a walk this
afternoon I had a couple more thoughts that I wish to share. First the
story of how I got to masters should have included how the remaining
advanced fliers would be affected by my absence. They will likely be
trading first place advancement points, which will accumulating faster,
epically if a single individual dominates. Without gaining significant
proficiency someone could find himself or herself forced into masters
much less prepared than I, which can be difficult at best. <O:P></O:P></span></font></span></p>

color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">When I spoke of using the
raw score as a personal benchmark I was actually using the judge
awarded average not the total K factor average. I found a couple
contest records both of which had 10-point takeoff and landing, which
contributed excessively to my performance average. The K-average was 1
to 2 % lower due to lower scores in higher K maneuvers. The value to be
used needs to be the K value average.<O:P></O:P></span></font></span></p>

style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">The other thing we should
consider is revising / simplifying the rule used to allow a return to a
lower class. Nobody enjoys being in last place all the time. A
performance average used for advancement effectively identifies the
upper performance limit within a class and an equally valid argument
could be made to use a minimum value, below maybe 50%, to allow return
to the next lower class. Of course this of course would not be
mandatory.<O:P></O:P></span></font></span></p>

Thank you for the thoughtful reply and your interest in the survey.<br>
As someone once told me, you can't have change without dissatisfaction.<br>
The subject of class advancement comes up often enough that one has<br>
to believe a lot of folks feel there is a better way.<br>
You bring up some excellent alternatives that need to be discussed.<br>
I know this discussion will lead to one or more survey proposals.<br>
I hope to have the survey ready to publish on the website, in the
K-Factor and <br>
Model Aviation and on the various forums by late summer. So we have
time<br>
to formulate your ideas.<br>
By the way, the survey will be open to ALL those interested in pattern.<br>
NOT just NSRCA members.<br>
Once again thanks Jim!<br>
