As far as I know, the only increase in cost is if you want to be included in
the Team Selection portion of the event. In other words, only those who
pay the extra money will be eligible to be on the Team. </span></font></p>

style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>I have to agree with Gray
on this. For those of us employed, we are already skipping 1 full work
week plus 1-3 days of the prior week. Total is between 5-8 work days
depending on driving time. After the 2003 masters finals and awards ceremony,
Dennis S. and I drove the RV ½ way through Missouri before stopping. I
was home by Saturday night. This left Sunday for emergency, unpacking,
& nats-detox. I would not like to get home on Sunday, or possibly
have to take the next Monday off because of emergency, etc. Believe me,
it happens (2/4 trips have had road side emergencies). I think MOST
attendants will not be happy with having the banquet on Thursday night.
Previously, having it on Wednesday night allowed for those who wanted to stay
and watch some or all the finals flying, or start the trek home. The ONLY
people I know of who did not leave in some fashion on Thusday afternoon or
night were those who "flew" into Muncie or similar. </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>I believe it is quite
reasonable for us (nats attendants) to expect some of the format to remain the
same. Also, do all the potential FAI pilots know about the increased
costs for entering FAI? I have my nats package, and the additional cost
was not mentioned. It will be quite interesting to see if the
"F" pattern used on Wednesday and the increased cost will
"increase" or "decrease" the FAI entrants. If the FAI
entrants are decreased, then it is possible the Masters judging will suffer.</span></font></p>

is a great benefit when you live 1 hour away. Me....16.5 hours..... if I do
well holding in my urine......I like the banquet but I just do not think I am
going to stay a full day more to watch the finals and go to the banquet.
I am not so sure flying on Tues-Thursday is good too, but I like it better
simply cuz I can show up one day later.<br>
Trying to figure out how this is all gonna work.......<br>
