[NSRCA-dist8] 2022 Schedule

Fri Feb 18 17:57:45 AKST 2022

Hi Igor,
I agree: these videos (a little long, unfortunately 🙃) have LOTS of new and important info for FAI pilots and judges! We'll need to learn and fly by the new guidelines in FAI, if we agree with the changes or not.
I hope to see all of you at the 23/24 April Medford season opener contest! Hopefully, the weather will cooperate!!!
Sean

The training link John posted in K-Factor magazin I find amazing:
https://www.fai.org/page/f3-aerobatics-training-material-judges

I also captured the GPS coordinates for the flying fields:
- April 23/24 Medford, Oregon D7/8 Shootout (42.4188,-122.7678)
- May 21/22 Tri Cities, Washington (46.3549,-119.3530)
- June 25/26 Boise, Idiaho (43.452763,-116.157289)
- July 23/24 Redmond, Oregon (44.2932,-121.1455)
- August 13/14 Becks field, Oregon (45.1415,-122.6766)

Does the addition of the April contest before Richland impact when we would do the judge training?
