Just so I am clear, the National Scale Aerobatics Chanpionships are NOT IMAC contests?? Huh?? Then what is.

I too am one who cannot understand why Basic is excluded from the NATS. And BTW Shawn, not all regions recognize Basic in their regional standings. IMAC very much treats Basic as a second class citizen.

I have always viewed Basic as the very lifeblood of IMAc. Sadly, most others would rahter have 20 Unlimited pilots. I wold rather have 20 Basic pilots at a contest.
