I have suggested this previously and was told this was too difficult for Sportsman pilots. I don’t agree with that at all. I would like to see the lower classes have some more challenging maneuvers, but less box stuff. I think this will attract guys to fly without having to invest a lot. There will be a big jump at some point between classes, and I believe between Intermediate and Advanced. By that time people know if they want to continue and can look to invest more time and effort into it. The approach that we can make the patterns smoothly flow from one class to another simply wont work without lowering the overall difficulty. We need to make it more fun for Sportsman to encourage new blood and let them see how much fun it can be. This is just my opinion, but this approach seemed to work well 15-20 years ago.<BR>

</SPAN></FONT><FONT FACE="Times New Roman"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12pt'>I agree Verne. I wish it was set up as it used to be, where sportsman left the box often and even Intermediate had a couple of breaks. I would like to see the difficulty increased in the lower classes, but more box brakes. It amazes me that 20 years ago a Novice pilot had to do 3 loops, but with todays airplanes and technology, suddenly this is more difficult. I would bet many Advanced pilots would have trouble with it and even more so the three rolls that were in Sportsman. It seems as though we have totally changed the entry levels encouraging the need for full blown pattern ships. Years ago you could fly Novice with any average sport plane. Adding complexity with maneuvers at the top of the box and the vertical upline that requires some power has made this sequence much harder to fly competitively with a .40 size sport plane. <BR>

</SPAN></FONT><FONT COLOR="#1F497D"><FONT FACE="Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12pt'>It wasn’t the expense. It was the fact that an above-average sport pilot could do a pretty respectable job with that old Sportsman schedule without the full commitment that a full-time pattern pilot makes. Those guys had a blast going against their rivals in whatever region they lived in. Go somewhere else and it’d be an entirely different group having just as much fun flying against their pals.. A few of those guys would move up through the classes but most seemed to be quite happy and content to do 2 or 3 “local” contests a year and have at it against their pals. Turnaround raised the ante and the commitment to a level those guys obviously didn’t want to go to.<BR>
<BR>
I never flew against any of those guys because my first contest away from my home field was in Advanced which is a long story in itself. Suffice to say, I wouldn’t have recommended it then and especially not now. FWIW, I love turnaround flying. I have just always thought we put a little too much pressure on those that want to give it a try and probably scare off some or many in the process. For those that might want to argue the point, forget it. Been there, done that, ain’t doing it no more.<BR>

Some time back I applied K-factors to those non-turnaround schedules to try to understand the migration of increasing difficulty, concluding that the K-factor alone is a poor indicator of actual difficulty. But we all step up to the challenge regardless of the difficulty.<BR>

You can log on at the NSRCA website and then proceed to the judges section and click on archived documents. Thanks to Jim Hiller who provided me a lot of these, I was able to scan them in and put them into the PDF Format. Anyone who has anything older than whats up there, send a hard copy to me to scan and I'll have Derek put them up.<BR>

The smoothness and gracefulness 25% gives a judge a non-objective way to give a downgrade of 2 to 3 points. Since there is no scoring criteria for it that I could find, other than Michael Ramel's instructions to the judges at the WC, I'm not sure what we do with it. I would think that his instructions would have been protestable, if anyone had wanted to go down that path, since I'm unaware of any official FAI rule interpretation saying, for example, that constant speed is a part of smoothness and gracefulness.
