Andy,
The reason I moved up was because Basic is not take seriously as a competition class.
If I won (BIG IF) I wanted to be recognized like any other class winner.
I moved to Sportsman with to me is the FIRST class.

Why is it that the Basic class has not been mentioned yet? Is it that no one cares about this class? I have heard a number of people make that statement before. I flew SCAT last year and truthfully SCAT made the Basic class one of the most important classes there. Having said that, the basic sequences, other than the !QUOT!A!QUOT! sequence 180 degree turn, look almost identical, not much to decide on there. Why doesn't it include any inverted maneuvers? I stressed all last year learning how to draw a straight (well almost straight) line while inverted. Sorry if I seem whiny, but I WILL be flying this class and being new to IMAC have some concerns over what others have told me.
Thank you,
Andy
