<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>This
is all pretty interesting. From my perspective, I didn't &nbsp;really care who
beat me when I was in intermediate or advanced. I just knew that I was seeing
the skill level necessary to win. While it's nice to win a trophy in the lower
classes, I understood I wasn't competing against the best pilots anyway.&nbsp;
>From =0 A what I've seen there is a huge variation of talent&nbsp;within a
class anyway.&nbsp;I've seen Masters pilots fly that wouldn't win in advanced
if they bumped back down (maybe not even in intermediate). People move up for
all&nbsp;kinds of reasons unrelated to skill level. &nbsp;It's also interesting
that we talk about using each class to improve our flying until we get to
Masters, then it appears nobody wants to improve to FAI. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
