Masters is a lot more fun than Advanced and a heck of a lot easier!!!!! I
can't do either with any degree of precision, but the security factor is
much higher in Masters! <br>

We need to have a "Master Senior Shootout" at the Nats next year for Master
pilots who are 60+, with the winner to be designated "Best Master Old Geezer".<br>

I am rooting for the guys that are old timers and still at it. My skills
are slipping in pattern competition but still well enough to fly Advanced,
just not enough to fly Advanced well. I am not going away, just facing circumstances.
The improvements I make in practicing Advanced now days are almost imperceptable.
I think I will take a hard look at the Masters sequence. I need a change

<font face="Arial"><font size="-1">So, John, How old are you? I'm 70 and
no matter how much I practice my Advanced pattern gets slightly more erratic
every year! But, I am still one of the best flyers at our field thanks to
my Pattern practice; it Works... My eyesight is good, so I can be judging.
I am the ONLY pattern flyer at our field (San Luis Obispo, CA, 90 members),
200 miles from any competition, and it gets old to drive by myself. So due
to that and circumstances I have not competed in 2 years. This discussion
group is my link to a sport I really enjoy and continue to learn from.</font></font> <font
