I know that "suck" and "blow" are opposites, but that situation both "sucks" and "blows". We used to have a designated "checkin/practice" day
<u>and</u> a "rain" day.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>The AMA has shortened the total NATS period this year, so you read that correct. Fortunately, our actual flying days were not changed. Soaring went from 13 days to 6 days this year. In previous years, it was never truly our day, but it worked out that way
as a day of setup for the workers. We have never had a true practice day, but since the sites were free, they were available. Sites 1 and 4 may be available, but that remains to be seen. Once Pylon is done then we will be able to use the sites. Think of
it as how the others sites have worked on Saturdays in previous years.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><br>
Just settled dates here at the NATS planning meeting. The official dates are now set and I want to get it out early.
<br>
<br>
July 21-25. <br>
Check-In is July 21. <br>
Intermediate & Advanced flying July 22-24<br>
Masters and FAI Prelims July 22-24<br>
Masters & FAI finals July 25<br>
<br>
Fees are the same as last year.<br>
Early entry deadline: June 24<br>
Late deadline: July 8<br>
<br>
Fees will once again double after June 24. Refunds can be issued up to 24 hours prior to start, minus the AMA part, so if you register early and have to change, you can get your NSRCA fees back.
<br>
<br>
Will update with more information later, but wanted to get the dates out for planning purposes.
