Jerry,<br>
<br>
Congratulations on your new task. <br>
A couple of questions regarding your committee.<br>
<br>
Will the letter to the contest board indicate NSRCA support or
non-support of each submitted proposal in addition to comments and
suggestions?<br>
<br>
Does the fact that the committee is not generating any of its own
proposals indicate a new policy of the NSRCA or is it simply that it
is very late in the cycle to get started?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
John<br>

<div class="">All,</div>

</div>
<div class="">I was recently appointed Chairman of the NSRCA Rules
Proposal Committee and tasked with creating an ad-hoc committee
to review and comment on the proposals that have been formally
submitted to the AMA RC Aerobatics Contest Board. John Fuqua
and Robert Green have generously agreed to join me on the NSRCA
Rules Proposal Committee. Their email addresses are listed
below.</div>

<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">There are currently 7 proposals under review; they
can be found at: <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.modelaircraft.org/events/ruleproposals/rcaero.aspx"
class="">http://www.modelaircraft.org/events/ruleproposals/rcaero.aspx</a>.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">There is a March 15th submittal deadline for new
proposals to AMA so there isn’t sufficient time to conduct a
NSRCA member survey and analyze the data. There is time for
interested members to read the proposals and share their
thoughts with the Committee members directly via email, or
indirectly on this discussion list. Either way I would request
that you provide your comments soon as the Committee will need a
few days to summarize its thoughts before submitting them to the
AMA RC Aerobatics Contest Board.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">One point that I want to emphasize is that the NSRCA
Rules Proposal Committee is <u class="">not</u> tasked with
taking suggestions for rules proposals from the general NSRCA
Membership and creating new proposals for submittal to AMA based
on that input. The Committee's tasking is to:</div>
<div class="">
<div class="">
<ol class="">
<li class="">Review proposals that have been submitted to
AMA.</li>
<li class="">Receive input from the general NSRCA membership
on the submitted proposals.</li>
<li class="">Provide comment/suggestions to the RC
Aerobatics Contest Board as the official voice of NSRCA.</li>
</ol>
</div>
</div>
<div class="">If you are interested in submitting a proposal to
AMA, instructions may be found here: <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.modelaircraft.org/events/ruleproposals.aspx#2018-2019"
class="">http://www.modelaircraft.org/events/ruleproposals.aspx#2018-2019</a>.
However, I would recommend that you consider contacting your
District’s representative on the AMA RC Aerobatics Contest Board
in advance of submitting the proposal so you can benefit from
their thoughts and perspective. I would also politely request
that you send me a copy of your proposal so the NSRCA Rules
Proposal Committee can study it and be able to provide the
Contest Board with timely input on the proposal. As I mentioned
earlier, AMA’s deadline for new proposal submittals is March
15th, so please don’t delay!</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Of course, everyone who is an AMA member has the
option to send their inputs directly to the RC Aerobatics
Contest Board. If you are interested in doing so, here is the
contact info for the AMA RC Aerobatics Contest Board <a
