shawn, basic is not a nats class, nor has it been offered at the TAS or the JR Challenge, decisions that I have never understood. that is the basis for my statement. basic does exist at the regional level - as it should - but it is not flown at the NATs. One of the reasons that Intermediate came into being is that Basic pilots who wanted to fly at the NATs had to go to Sp and the result was ridiculously large Sp classes. As for Perris...I just remember being real impressed with your tailwheels and spinner!
