color:#1F497D'>FYI – Sportsman, at least at one point, was not “technically”
even an official Pattern class – it was a created as a provisional class to
get sport pilots involved in Pattern. My experience has shown me that here in
the Northeast (where the flying season is somewhat limited time-wise) there are
not very many “sport” pilots who can even fly a complete Pattern sequence
in the box right from the start. Add snaps and spins and you’re just
looking to turn people away. If they’re at that level I just tell them to
start in Intermediate or Advanced and see how it goes from there.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>I actually
wouldn't mind if the lower classes could be made 'funner' and
more challenging. I don't know why spins and snaps can't be attempted in
lower classes than they currently are. Spins and snaps are at
the lower level IMAC. If someone doesn't like to compete
in IMAC, it's in spite of the fun knows, not because of them.<br>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>Basically,
there has been quite a bit of deviation from the tradition here that
goes way back when performance was an issue and certain maneuvers were just
done a certain direction because of that. Rolling maneuvers were always
downwind, square loops for example upwind, top hat upwind, reverse Cuban
8s upwind, Cuban 8s downwind, triangle loops downwind, square horizontal eight
downwind, center stalls and spins having turnaround maneuvers after
them to allow the pilot to bring the aircraft in or out
because of wind drift while in the stalled condition, etc. <br>
<br>
I think what has really brought about this deviation from the norm
significantly more this time around is the design of recent FAI
sequences which have deviated a lot from what was done in the past.<br>
<br>
Maybe we need to add more design parameters and boundaries to the sequence
guide spelling out direction of flight of certain classes of maneuvers
for at least through Intermediate and to some extent
Advanced and a little bit in Masters. I guess you could peg the
blame on me for missing this when I put the original guidelines together
with the committee at that time. We do have many of the parameters which
help in designing a good sequence, but I guess we may need a few more.<br>
<br>
It is probably one of the reasons why there is such heated discussion
on the proposed sequences and that is partially due to the experience of the
current group of people on the sequence committee which is no fault of
their own. The previous committees had the advantage of having a few guys
who had many many years of involvement in past committees and just maybe
they should have been at the very least kept on in an advisory role. Hindsight
I guess.<br>
<br>
No one is really to blame here. If anything it should be a learning
experience and maybe some new parameters and boundaries need
to be added to the guideline design criteria for each class.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

color:#1F497D'>Yes, you’re correct. And as I recall, that sequence
was described as being the worse sequence ever developed by one of the current
committee members. I assume because maneuvers were flown in the wrong
direction (Loop from top (u), Top Hat (d), Double I (d), downwind Rev
Shark’s Tooth?) Somewhere it must be written that rolling maneuvers
are always flown downwind but I can’t seem find it.</span><span
