Default RE: Who Flies Next?

On our frequency board in the center of it we have a small pole (waiting or priority) that we put our frequency pins on the top of the stack if they wish to fly. As one person lands that person remove their pin from the frequency board, and the person on the bottom of the priority pole is the next to fly, if the person who just landed wishes to fly again he puts his pin on the top of the stack on the "priority pole" and when he get to the bottom he will be the next to fly. The rule I posted above is what governs that as well as freq pin usage. We use it for the 2.5 operators as well (which are exempt from having to use pins except for this purpose) so there is no question about how get to fly next, it has worked out well thus far with no complaints. We used to have a couple of member who wouldn't remove their pin after a flight and just fuel up and go back, up leaving some members sitting waiting to fly and they wouldn't say anything, this eliminated that problem.
