As the interpretation goes, I do not understand the discussion here now, if it is about all the pilots that are not in the top 30 being punished harder by the judges? Then maybe, I usually think I'm flying well just to see how judges think otherwise, so I got one of my team mates to film my flights, I was originally mad at certain results, but when I saw the video it was clear to me.

I think every pilot should see his flights on video, and maybe compare to one of the top pilots, then get a personal evaluation.

I talked to one of the judges in Portugal and he commented that CPLR was one of the very few that got every maneuver in perfect positioning on the box, and in Portugal he told us that positioning was the most important factor, so, if CPLR was 15 off or not, well, those 15deg could be the observer position offset, I really doubt that having the flags the top pilots will pass it, but the judges were checking especially that.

When we were flying last year in Colombia in the South America F3A Open, we all could place ourselves behind Jason Shulman and watch his flight from the pilots view, he never flew out of the box and made it looks so easy.

Judges make a lot of mistakes, but also judges are the first excuse to all the pilots, so I'm going to practice really hard this year, and I will make my flights better, it has to pay off with the Judges, I cannot complaint at Portugal, I did not do good and specially when I saw the video [sm=red_smile.gif].
