[NSRCA-dist1] NSRCA States within D1

Mon Oct 9 17:06:44 AKDT 2017

The history is correct..there was lots of pattern in northern VA and MD
until the mid/late 1990s..and then it died until Chris Moon revitalized the
area in the mid 2000s.  During the low activity period, Rich and Frank Bis
from MD were the only active flyers, and the closest contests to them were
in eastern PA.

Being able to pick your district for purposes of the district championship
was set years ago.

I don't recall MD moving back to D2.but it really doesn't affect anyone with
the option to select your own District.

Just as a point of clarification..anyone that has been involved with NSRCA
for an extended period of time knows that D7 is the center of the pattern
universe..historical actions make that case pretty clear.

Regards,

Dave

That's true. I live in the Pittsburgh area and competed as a D4 pilot even
though I was in D1.

There was a rule put in place about a decade ago that allowed a pilot to
select a district to compete in regardless of where he lived. 

If that rule is still in the it would seem to answer this issue.

History as I remember it, the change was done when there were only two 
pilots active in MD who flew mostly up in D1 and at a time before Larry 
Kauffman got things going in Virginia when activity there was at an all 
time low. Based on the activity levels currently going on in the MD, Va, 
DC area it would make sense to return Delaware(no activity) and 
MD(increased activity) back to its original districting, D2.

For the most part the bulk of pattern activity in our district is in NJ, 
NY and eastern PA. New England area is dead for all practical purposes 
and really only has one truly active flying pilot in the district.  I 
doubt New England will ever recover. When I started flying pattern, I 
believe our district was among the top 3 largest districts when it came 
to NSRCA membership. It was over 100. I think the one thing lacking from 
NSRCA is promoting membership in the NSRCA at local contests.

And the NSRCA as an organization has really pissed me off on the 
sequence development. I've been a member since the late 1980's. I'm 
digging real deep to really justify why I should continue membership and 
to some extent competing. The west coast agenda is destroying our sport.
