<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Eric,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Well, okay, you pulled me out of the shadows. I'm dead
set against an unknown in the finals for a variety of reason. Bob Pastorello
just rattled off a bunch of them in another post so I'll try not to repeat
those. Most Masters pilots could do a credible job in FAI with practice.
This is not to say that a Masters finalist would likely be an FAI finalist
because I don't think they would. By the same token, I don't think we'd be
at the bottom of the heap, either. However, the one common thread I hear
again and again among Masters pilots is a lack of the time required to
become competitive with two separate schedules. In addition, there's a
couple of big differences between flying the finals and flying the prelims.
In no particular order, the judging is more consistent, there's no
distraction from midair close calls, there's more pressure and so on.
Combined, these things can both help and hurt the contestant with the main
effect being that flying in the finals is very different than flying in the
prelims. Leave the unknowns and/or finals schedules for those pilots that
choose to fly in that environment and that environment is FAI. I don't see
any benefit in tinkering with something that's not broken. If anything,
it'll prevent those that don't have the preparation time from showing
up in the first place.</FONT></DIV>

I am particularly interested in what you say because as a person who
actually attends the Nat's, you are therefore well positioned
to have and entertain new ideas. As a person who makes it to the finals
you are both experiential and a potential who would fly this stuff. You
are more than just a theorist. How do other ex-finalist
think?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The subject heading says unknowns not
impossibles....The maneuvers would not (be intended to) be more
difficult. Just stringing them together would be difficult to sort the
finalists out...</FONT></DIV>
