<font color='black' size='2' face='arial'><font size="2"><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">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.<br>
<br>
1. OK with me as long as it doesn't get in the way of anything related to people completing the Districts as expected.<br>
2. I don't fly Masters (yet).<br>
3. I would participate although I don't expect to be 'invited'. ;-)<br>
<br>
The problem that I see is by the end of the regular contest, people are hot, tired and wanting to get on the road. <br>

having a nice competition season so far and as you all know the season
championships are coming up. They will be at the Arvin field on October 20<sup>th</sup>
& 21<sup>st</sup>. There has been a discussion started on RCU regarding
doing some “extra” things at the district contest. I would like to
get some feedback from D7 pilots who are planning on attending the district
championships. </span></font></div>

Scoring for this contest will as always be best 4 out of 6 rounds for the AMA
classes and for FAI it will be best 3 out of 4 rounds of the P schedule and the
best 1 out of 2 rounds of the F schedule.</span></font></div>

is there any interest in the top three pilots having a 1 round “unknown”

would not count towards the regular contest at all but would have some small
prize awarded.</span></font></div>
