<div>Well, not in the last 15 years.   I started in Novice in 1989, Sportsman (Intermediate) in 91, Advanced 94, Masters ’97, and FAI in 2000.  Didn’t fly F until they introduce the semi-finals at the Nats maybe in ’05?  Didn’t fly F without panicking until
 2011.  
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Obviously we had Andrew go through the ranks when he started, but again, not in the last 10-15 years.    My son is on that path, but alas, college has slowed him at Masters.</div>

<div>Subject: Re: [NSRCA-discussion] The most important thing to understand about pattern
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>At least 20 years. 
<div><br>
</div>
<div>And we JUST lost a very active (came to 9-10 contests a year) Intermediate pilot because the box is too much for him.  Flying Sportsman was no good because he was usually the only one, and he wanted competition rather than a participation award.
   I’ve said for many years the we lost a lot of non-traveling, club participants when we went to turn-around.   But that ship has sailed and we won’t realistically be going back. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>One thing I’d like to see at local contests is more attention and more flights for Sportsman pilots.  We have to make their contest experience a great one.  All too often they pay full price and get short shrift on flying and attention.  That
 alone could help us.</div>
