US Competition Pilot Poll and Election
David, why do you like about MAT'S?
Most MAT's I've flown, everyone seems to go in opposite directions. You fly alone, just like on a solo OLC flight. I can't compete against someone in another airmass with a different start time, so how can we really determine the winner?
What other types of racing in the whole world has different start times AND different courses? Does such a thing exist? Who created the MAT? Who is responsible for this?
To me, MAT's have become a tradition in the USA, while soaring in America continues to decline year after year. Perhaps that's why the rest of the world gives a big fat middle finger to MAT's. Hmmmm.
There is NO racing when there isn't a "SET" course!
