There has been a lot of interest in a D2 judging seminar which the NSRCA adopted to be a national judging seminar that took place on 11 February 2023. Thanks for all the support on this from the many guest speakers and judging experts, as it went very well. It was a great learning experience from a judging, pilot and technology perspective. Working to compress the 3 ½ hour video into a you-tb format, as many expressed interest from not just D2 and the other NSRCA districts, but the world! The event actually reminded me a bit of some past seminars that took place at Toledo show, where a really great exchange of ideas and techniques are shared across the hobby and aerobatics community.
