Yes, when I started (~1955) there was one list of maneuvers used by all;
Rudder Only, Intermediate, (referred to as Mickey Mouse) and Multi-channel.
Classes were formally Class I, Class II, Class III.
<br>You did your stuff, called the maneuver name, then "beginning now"
and "complete" after each maneuver. When you thought you were finished,
you could ask the judges "anything left?"
<br>They'd tell you: "Yeah, you haven't done the 3 turn spin, and you haven't
done the 3 outside loops." You'd then either do the stuff, skip it,
or, if you were out of time, (10 minutes) you were finished anyhow.
Obviously, for the Rudder-Only Class, there were some things they couldn't
even attempt. Surprisingly, there also was a lot of stuff they *could*
do too, that you wouldn't think.
<br>Lots of informality, lots of fun.

agree Bob, When I have had to do some judging it was always nice

the pilot have to call all his manuvers to the judge with out a caller

<p><font face="Arial"><font color="#000000"><font size=-1>I agree, with
the caller calling the maneuvers loud enough for the judges to hear, but
I have found that there is a lot of resistance to this proceedure.
I've always viewed presenting the sequence such that the judges could judge
it, easily and correctly as part of the "job" and the caller can contribute
to that to a large degree, by calling the maneuvers such that there is
no confusion. I will also point out that I have nearly been lynched
for this position, on occasion :-)</font></font></font>
