Default Is the 200ft below Min Finish Height Rule Working?

Could we please just raise the finish height to 2000 feet and get it over with? i'll just do contest style finishes when i'm not at contests.

having made my sarcastic remark, I do appreciate the efforts to make this sport safer. the problem is you cannot prevent accidents universally, this is aviation and racing combined. Instead we need to encourage pilots to make safe decisions rather than trying to protect everyone by implementing rules.

my two cents.
