<div>If we're serious about "increasing participation" then I think we need to take a look at what captures the imaginations of the young pilots these days and figure out how to integrate that into what we do. F3P gets participation because it has the freestyle component where people get to innovate and "wow" the crowd. It also has a very high crowd appeal.
<div><br></div>
<div>If I can digress for a moment into a fair, but somewhat flawed, analogy -- consider figure skating: up through, I believe 1992, amateur figure skating had 3 components: the compulsory figures, the short program and the long program. In 100's of hours of figure skating competition that I watched on television through 1992 I believe I saw a total of about 5 minutes of the compulsory figures, TV rightly considered them too boring to watch. They are, however, the building blocks of the short + long program.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>In 1994's Albertville Olympics, the compulsory figures were removed from the competition entirely, replaced with a requirement for specific figures to occur during the short program, but the skater was encouraged to put them together in a creative and innovative fashion that would have crowd appeal (read: artistic impression) as well as demonstrating technical prowess -- additional figures could be added into the program, and they would be judged, and it's possible to substitute a harder figure for an easier one (i.e. triple axle could be used instead of a triple lutz) but you cannot skip any of the compulsory figures (i.e. there's still always a figure 8 at some point, there's always a spinning stunt that requires a foot change and manipulation of angular momentum) or you get a severe downgrade in your technical score that the artistic score cannot recover.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I said it was a flawed analogy, but I don't think any amount of turnaround/non-turnaround, heavy/light, small/large, etc. is going to bring more people into pattern. "Young kids nowadays" with obvious exceptions, want to do stuff that gets the "wow" on YouBoob, it takes actually being introduced to pattern, experiencing the thrill of executing a maneuver "with precision" and knowing what it takes to do that for watching pattern to be interesting, just as was true with the compulsories in figure skating. You have to be a competitor to appreciate another competitor's flight + effort. I'd argue you even have to be there and have a dog in the hunt for it to be truly interesting because I love pattern but I have a tolerance for about 10 minutes of watching pattern competition on YouBoob, even though I'll happily watch others compete (or even practice) for hours trying to learn something from what I'm seeing when I'm watching in person.
That argues for some kind of "coaching" or "development" program, some way for the venerated experts to hand down their knowledge and expertise to the young pups who can probably fly the 3D pants off their coaches, but can't fly anything where the wing is actually doing the work with precision to save their lives, and the young (and not so young) sport fliers who are interested but don't know how to start, how to think about executing the maneuvers, how to think about corrections, etc. I'd say I wouldn't be in pattern if it weren't for 4 factors: a long dormant interest, the Osiris (and now the Vanquish), Dave Scott's excellent books on sport + precision aerobatics, and some GREAT guys at the field and at the competitions I've been to. I talk to a LOT of 3D + sport guys who have some interest in "improving their precision" but don't know how to get started with pattern and find watching pattern boring. The young folk that do fly
pattern seem to have one common characteristic: a parent or close relative/friend who is actively, or used to be, a good pattern pilot</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I can say for certain, and the 3D/sport guys I know understand intuitively, that flying pattern (even as poorly as I do it) will dramatically improve *all* your flying (knock on wood, I haven't crashed an aircraft other than some less than perfect landings, since I started flying pattern -- I used to routinely crash and just accepted that as part of the nature & cost of the hobby (my first instructor said "if you fly them, you crash them" as a fundamental rule of the hobby)).</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>To use another less than perfect analogy, back in the 60's and 70's the US had *no* internationally capable soccer team -- in the 70's the US branch of FIFA introduced a YMCA soccer program and real soccer talent developed in the US, we now routinely compete well (though have yet to take home the cup) in the world cup of men's soccer and I believe this last year was the first time in 2 decades that the US women didn't walk away with the world cup. </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>If you want growth in anything, no amount of rules change is going to move the lever, you need to have a real development program to capture and nurture raw interest and talent. Great pilots need to learn how to teach new pilots their skillz, as Jim Kimbro did for Matt, as Tim Jesky and others did for Andrew, etc.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Hmmm -- why not a YMCA/AMA partnership to develop new pilots from trainers -> sport aerobatics -> precision aerobatics?</div>

<div>Having served on the rules change survey committee back in 2005 this all sounds like the e-mail comments some 105 of them that I saved that are a near copy of the current reasons for and against the weight change issue of the current post's.</div>
<div> If you want to look at change and effect to pattern that i think has more to do with attracting new members look at the pattern difficulty.</div>
<div>Back in 1996 everything was simple and beginners were shaking in their boots to do an outside loop the most difficult maneuver in FAI was </div>
<div>a snap on a 45 down line. I think some possible new bees go to the field watch a while, try a while and leave. True those who have the funds, ability and competitive drive will stay. By the way I was in favor of the weight change back then but like Bob my dog is in the cage and hasn't hunted in a while and when it does only looks for crippled birds. </div>

<div><p>The whole hobby of model airplanes has changed significantly in the last 10-15 years, with many more venues to divide one's time in the hobby - pattern is an overall smaller piece of the pie as a result.

<div><p> <u></u><u></u></p></div>
<div><p>For the life of me, I can't see why everyone is getting bent out of shape over the proposed weight limt rule for the lower classes. It opens up the possibilities for someone wanting to get started in pattern and competing in the lower classes, IMHO. If someone in the upper classes has a plane that is at the weight limit, but is unable to repair the plane without it going over the limit, then it becomes a perfect hand-me-down for someone getting started. <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div><p> <u></u><u></u></p></div>
<div><p>The fact is that the proposed rule does not exclude any planes that are already legal. The guys that build light know they should have a better flying plane than one that is heavier. The only reason I can think of that people with light planes can get upset with this rule is that someone with a heavier plane might beat them.. <u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div><p> <u></u><u></u></p></div>
<div><p>OTOH, how often are models weighed at local contests? I never saw it done in the years I flew, but that was before the electrics came on the scene. Tell me, does any CD weigh planes at a local event now? If not, then I am really confused about weight limit discussions where someone says it is ruining things to raise the weight limit, when no one is checking it at local contests anyway. Why all the fuss (one way or the other) about a rule that no one enforces except at the Nats?<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div><p> <u></u><u></u></p></div>
<div><p>I really don't have a dog in this hunt. I'm just confused about all the strongly worded comments going back and forth. This, IMHO, does more to turn people off from pattern than any rule change proposal.<u></u><u></u></p>
