Too many pilots get dangerously out of kilter trying to handle the flight direction challenges after a center maneuver when they are under the stress load of being judged. Their next step up would be 402 turnaround but by then they would be more pattern proficient.</SPAN></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=810190714-28072003></SPAN></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=810190714-28072003>We would change the schedule to do more than straight line in the center but not by much else.</SPAN></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=810190714-28072003></SPAN></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=810190714-28072003>Any strong feelings or views on this train of thought?</SPAN></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=810190714-28072003></SPAN></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=810190714-28072003>Regards,</SPAN></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=810190714-28072003><BR>Eric.</SPAN></FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
