<DIV><FONT size=2>In a close race it is very frustrating to have both judges
from the sportsman class judging a higher class unless they have
previously judged that class and are familiar with the sequence that they will
judge and know the basic downgrades and how to apply them. An example of
this is a judge who sees a maneuver performed near perfect and scores it as
such when the maneuver is off center, out of the box or flown in or out with
no downgrades being applied for those errors it happens more than you may
think. As you know I fly advanced and would rank the judging of that
class at your contest as the best that I have experienced in recent years.
judges were from the Masters and FAI class and it does make a difference. I
did not win the contest but for the first time in a long time the judging
quality was not a question.</FONT></DIV>
