[NSRCA-dist7] District 7 Season Championships

[atwooddon at aol.com]

John, first of all, I echo the common sentiment that this is the District Championship and completing that adequately is the first priority.  Anything that prevents completion should be avoided.  On the other hand, having fun at contests has proven pretty successful lately so how you mix the two can be tricky.

1.  OK with me as long as it doesn't get in the way of anything related to people completing the Districts as expected.
2.  I don't fly Masters (yet).
3.  I would participate although I don't expect to be 'invited'.  ;-)

The problem that I see is by the end of the regular contest, people are hot, tired and wanting to get on the road.  

Don

To all pattern pilots in D7 – Greetings! We have beenhaving a nice competition season so far and as you all know the seasonchampionships are coming up. They will be at the Arvin field on October 20th& 21st. There has been a discussion started on RCU regardingdoing some “extra” things at the district contest. I would like toget some feedback from D7 pilots who are planning on attending the districtchampionships. 
 
Point 1) Understand, the focus of this contest will be AMApattern. Weather permitting; we WILL fly six rounds in all AMA classes and FAI.Scoring for this contest will as always be best 4 out of 6 rounds for the AMAclasses and for FAI it will be best 3 out of 4 rounds of the P schedule and thebest 1 out of 2 rounds of the F schedule.
 
Given point 1; I would like to hear from you about thefollowing questions.
 
1)       Is thereinterest in doing some “fun” stuff like Gee-Bee racing late Fridayafternoon and late Saturday afternoon?
2)       For Mastersis there any interest in the top three pilots having a 1 round “unknown”schedule “fly-off” after the regular contest finishes on Sunday. Thiswould not count towards the regular contest at all but would have some smallprize awarded.
3)       For FAI isthere any interest in the top three pilots having a 1 round “unknown”schedule “fly-off” after the regular contest finishes on Sunday. Thiswould not count towards the regular contest at all but would have some smallprize awarded.
 
Please give me your feedback on these questions. You cananswer to the list or just e-mail me at my usual address joncarter60 at comcast.net 
 
Thanks
