<span>It looks to me like there are two different things going on here. There's a run what you brung which would essentially mean pretty much anything 60 size and smaller would compete. Then there's the "classic pattern". Honestly, I'm not planning on putting another plane in the air, it's going to be tough enough to keep myself flying and get Nicole flying if she gets motivated, so to me it doesn't really matter, but, I'm afraid if your going to say pretty much anything goes, then, anything needs to go. If your going to say classic pattern, then, classic pattern it is.</span></div>

<div>Yes. By saying 60 size that pretty much limits you to pre
80's planes. Are we going to turn away a guy that walks up with a little
Osiris? The way it's written, no we wouldn't turn him away, but I think this
is going to be a non issue or infrequent if at all. . We need to keep this
real simple and have fun.<u></u><u></u></div></div>

<div>Just a quick update. I have had a few question from a
couple of CD's in regards to Classic pattern this year. The bottom line is
we do this is to have fun and we don't want to load this up with a bunch of
rules. <u></u><u></u></div>
<div>
<div><u></u><u></u> </div></div>
<div>
<div>Long story short, here are the only criteria. Keep in
mind we will likely tweak this as we go:<u></u><u></u></div></div>
<div>
<div><u></u><u></u> </div></div>
<div>
<div>No year restrictions<u></u><u></u></div></div>
<div>
<div><u></u><u></u> </div></div>
<div>
<div>60 class planes or smaller<u></u><u></u></div></div>
<div>
<div><u></u><u></u> </div></div>
<div>
<div>6 cell maximum for electrics<u></u><u></u></div></div>
<div>
<div><u></u><u></u> </div></div>
<div>
<div>That's it. We will fly two schedules this year which are
Novice and Advanced which can be found here;<u></u><u></u></div></div>

</div>
<div>
<div><u></u><u></u> </div></div>
<div>
<div>At some of our contest we will fly classic Saturday and
Sunday in the mornings due to sun issues (Woodburn, Redmond). At fields like
Molalla that we can fly turnaround by 8:00, we will fly classic on Saturday
after turnaround and it's the discretion of the CD to fly classic on Sunday.
My guess is for those fields we will fly classic on Saturday only to get
guys on the road Sunday. <u></u><u></u></div></div>
<div>
<div><u></u><u></u> </div></div>
<div>
<div>Also, Gordon has been at it again with a great new
feature on the D8 site. No longer will you have to search in vane for
upcoming events to preregister on the NSRCA calendar. All you will need to
do is click on the 2014 schedule on the D8 site and you will find an info
link and a link to the calendar for preregistration. By the way, it is a
great help to the CD"s and Gordon to preregister to all contest you plan to
attend. Again, my thanks to Gordon. Without him, we wouldn't be where we
are. <u></u><u></u></div></div>
