Kudos to Ted on some of the best contest reporting we've seen this
year or any year. Anyone running a contest needs to look at the
Region 9 reports as a benchmark for how it should be done.

From dreary New Joisey, where the only time I'll be seeing 18,000 is
on the 8:45 out of EWR.

Great job reporting Ted!

Enjoyed your timely score postings and detailed updates.

Wish the contest had assigned a photographer for visuals though.

thanks,

Mike

Nick Kennedy started out by landing his Twin Astir in a groundhog
patch after a low altitude rope break. Barely an hour later he
relaunched, and later won the day. Wow!

Thanks, P3, for the very generous feedback.

My advice to future contest managers would be to have two or more
people writing reports, one of them the scorer, each dedicated to
different aspects of the contest. In the case of PR9, coverage of the
evening/social events was lacking because the scorespondent didn't
think to delegate the evening reports to one of the underemployed
crew.

I missed the DuckHawk presentation, and I should have devoted an
entire report to the crew appreciation party that Micki gave for the
crews Wednesday afternoon. Now *that* was something all CMs should
emulate!

In the air next time
