I've flown Sportsman for the past couple of years and finally late this year started getting decent scores on all maneuvers so I felt it was time to move up a class and give it a try. I went out this past week and tried the 2011 Intermediate sequence for the first time. Now I'm no spring chicken so I don't have nerves of steel like your son probably does, but the Sportsman sequence helped alot in providing me with the basics to attempt a more challenging sequence of maneuvers. It is a big jump in skill level for me with much more throttle management and inverted flying, but I had a blast doing it. Maneuvers are definitely challenging to someone at my skill level, but are unique and fun to fly. So I'm really excited to fly in the new sequence next year. </div><div><br></div><br><div><div>On Oct 7, 2010, at 8:44 AM, Atwood, Mark wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: medium; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; "><div lang="EN-US" link="blue" vlink="purple" style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><div class="Section1"><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125); ">Verne, I couldn’t agree more. The schedule committee has done a fabulous job but I think we as a group have to stay very vigilant that we maintain a common “Gap” and progression between the classes. That does NOT mean we can’t or shouldn’t keep up with the times. But the balance is very important and I think we currently have that (if by luck or design I don’t know or care). My son is going to try and jump from Sportsman to intermediate in the spring and it will be a HUGE one for him. BUT… we went out to fly the maneuvers last week in stages and while he can’t put together the whole sequence yet, I don’t think he scared himself making the attempt. A few of the maneuvers had some pucker factor… the double immelman was the first time he had ever pushed through an outside half loop, but since you immediately roll to an upright and comfortable orientation, he immediately relaxed and after 2 or 3 times I could tell it won’t be a problem.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125); "><o:p> </o:p></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125); ">That’s how the transitions should be.

The survival of our newsletter is tied directly to the number of advertisers. If those who sell products related to our hobby don't think it is profitable to continue advertising in the K-Factor, our newsletter will founder. I'm sure the poor economy is part of the problem. As the owner of a small hobby shop, I can tell you that my sales this year will be about half of what they were 5-7 years ago.<o:p></o:p></div><div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><o:p> </o:p></div></div><div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; ">It appears that the number of competitors is down in the southeast. I was stunned to see only 12 competitors at the O.J. Stillman contest in Jacksonville just over a week ago. That contest normally has numbers in the high 20s - low 30s. The Huntsville contest in September used to be a major contest, but there were so few contestants that we were either flying, calling or judging all the time. I know that numbers like that will cause clubs to think twice about hosting another contest. After a hiatus of almost ten years, my club, the Eglin Aero Modellers, is hosting a contest in just over a week. I hope the number of competitors is sufficiently high, because, if they are, I'm sure we will continue hosting the contest. If not, there won't be another contest.<o:p></o:p></div></div><div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><o:p> </o:p></div></div><div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; ">Ron<o:p></o:p></div></div><div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><o:p> </o:p></div></div><div><div><div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; ">On Oct 6, 2010, at 1:32 PM, Keith Hoard wrote:<o:p></o:p></div></div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; ">So how many competitors do we have left?<br><br>Sent from my iPhone<o:p></o:p></div></div><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><br>On Oct 6, 2010, at 13:11, mike mueller <<a href="mailto:mups1953@yahoo.com" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline; ">mups1953@yahoo.com</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></div><blockquote style="margin-top: 5pt; margin-bottom: 5pt; "><div><table class="MsoNormalTable" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tbody><tr><td valign="top" style="padding-top: 0in; padding-right: 0in; padding-bottom: 0in; padding-left: 0in; "><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "> I'm sure some see it as a small deal but if you are a competitor and attempting to abide by the rules you may have a completly different perspective.
