"Further flights of Schedule F may be planned, depending on local conditions and time available."

Hi Tony

Thanks for posting the actual rule. I think I was more right than wrong as the rule was intended more for World & International event finals but does allow local use under certain curcumstances which many have interpeted as "advance notice " by event CD's.

I have not flown competive Pattern Aerobatics in over 12 years which means I missed the introduction of intergrated rolling manuvers so I decided to fly FAI to get some experience with the basic "Rollers" in P-11. I am almost 65 years of age and have no illisions of making the finals at the Nat's so for me, and I suspect others, the equipment, time, and expense of flying F-11 just isn"t there. So I am left with making a decision to move to Masters [which has no rollers], fly one day events, or determine if there is some type of format that could accomodate flying both P & F at local contests. From the response thus far, even if it existed, I doubt it would be utilized! Anyway, thanks for posting the rule and by the way, I ordered both the power supply and charger you recommended.

Looks like Masters Nat's competition will be "Heating -Up" if Bill starts flying Pattern again!

Thanks
Dick
