<p><font face="Arial">In my opinion, the entire reason for having
team trials is to identify the top best pilots at about the time
it is needed. Pilots situation may change over the course of
two years such that a previous not-top pilot could become better
than the last top pilot from prior years. Furthermore, it is
also possible for a top pilot to lose his/her edge due to
personal changes in his/her life over time that results in
reduced practice time and proficiency. These are the reasons
why I personally endorse conducting another set of team trials
to identify the 2023 USA F3A team as the best representatives
for USA. If we don't do this consistently, then we might as well
simply use the same team members forever and never consider the
possibility that they are not the best possible USA
representatives.</font></p>

the 2021 F3A World Championships was cancelled. The next F3A
WC will be held in Australia in 2023 and Richard Hansen, AMA
President, has asked the F3A Team Selection Committee
members to determine the best approach to determine our
team. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 10pt;">We could either redesignate the existing
2021 team to be the 2023 team or hold a new team selection
to select new pilots. If we hold new team selections this
means the team selected in 2020 will not have been given the
opportunity to complete. However, If we designate the 2021
team to compete in 2023, this means we will not hold F3A
team selections for four years and consequently deprive
other competitors the opportunity of vying for the team. </span></p>

ensuring we have the best and most competitive team
possible; I agree with Richard in holding new team
selections for the 2023 F3A Team USA. This will allow all
interested pilots to compete for the team, those that have
been waiting for their opportunity in the next selection
process as well as those existing team members wishing to
renew their commitment.</span></p>
