<div><font style="background-color: transparent;" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">P.S. the Northern Virginia judging clinic date has been set at 30 March at LCAA. Sorry, but we will start later- (9 a.m.) and try and be completed by 2:30 if weather is bad, 4 PM or later if you want to stay and do the flight portion. NVRC will be providing lunch for all attendees. </font></div>

<div><font style="background-color: transparent;">A question on radius judging. Tight radius (or loose radius) manevuer segments are subject to downgrade in FAI. What constitutes a tight radius? Physically tight (in feet, for example), or tight (fast speed through the radius giving the impression that the plane is pulling excessive g's, however that is interpreted). A slow flying radius could be extremely tight, for example the last radius at the bottom of the triangle loop (135 degree pull) or figure Z.<br>
