Hi Stu,<BR>
Did you happen to find out how they deal with the scoring? If it is national and everyone is using the same program maybe an update could be available for the CD to download prior to the event?<BR>
One thing I noticed was a lot of judges with the aresti in one hand and score sheet in the other while judging. Lots of looking away during the flight. I looked over a few shoulder and would have put down some similar numbers.<BR>

If <BR>> you are not familiar with it, on a 2 day contest the unknown is handed <BR>> out after flying is done on the first day. The unknown is appropriate <BR>> for your class and is the same nationwide for that weekend. You are on <BR>> an honor system not to fly it or use a sim (I suspect some people do) <BR>> and the first flight of day 2 is the unknown. I believe it can not be a <BR>> dropped round. Basic class flies their usual sequence no unknown. It <BR>> adds a bit of excitement to the 2nd day of the contest. You have to be <BR>> able to do a bunch of maneuvers not in this years sequence but <BR>> appropriate for the class. So practice time might be more than 6 <BR>> identical flights of your current sequence. And most importantly it may <BR>> provide for some separation for the top fliers in each class. I had a <BR>> lot of fun discussing the sequences with my friends that were there, and <BR>> watching and listening to them after flying it. Hard to fly a sequence <BR>> for the first time without making a significant error.<BR>> <BR>> Stuart<BR>> <BR>> _______________________________________________<BR>> NSRCA-discussion mailing list<BR>> NSRCA-discussion@lists.nsrca.org<BR>> http://lists.nsrca.org/mailman/listinfo/nsrca-discussion<BR> <br /><hr />Insert movie times and more without leaving HotmailŪ. <a href='http://windowslive.com/Tutorial/Hotmail/QuickAdd?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_HM_Tutorial_QuickAdd_062009' target='_new'>See how.</a></body>
