allow the NSCRA to control the sequences this document is CRITICAL to having
this go through. The biggest concern we have is either a radical shift in
schedules, or worse, a slow series of progressive changes that alter the intent
of the discipline. The assumption is that the SIG is best to
control and evolve the sport, and to keep things current with changes in the
hobby. But without a fairly strict guideline that controls the process,
we could be subjected to the whim of a few. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

A procedural question -- It looks like the Pattern sequences will be removed
from the rulebook as a result of current rules proposals. Would love to hear
what the NSRCA will put in place for sequence management, maneuver

2011, I’m in favor of the short one. In our district there can be
12+ Masters pilots at a contest. This is a very long sit in the judging
chair for the judges and they may be needed more than once. If you just
want to fly that can be done in practice but don’t make the judges suffer
through the long sequence for that reason. Think about how you would like
to judge the long pattern if there were 14 pilots flying. Electric guys will
also be easier on the batteries.</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;
