If I were King for a day I'd minimize the rules with the objective of flying better. I'd maintain a rigorous schedule of maneuvers that would require an airplane but not limit the competitor's ability to make it fly better and not require more and more power like we have been doing for 60 years. Most people don't try to compete with the world champ but compete against how good they were flying yesterday. My joy comes when I am flying better than last year, month, week, day etc. And I don't need judges to tell me. I've been there and understand the pitfalls of subjective judging.
