not necessarily.......it may just mean that the 50 you eliminated will be
replaced with the 50 who don't waste their time and money to be fodder for
the 50 with the latest and greatest ships....
and...maybe the 50 you might eliminate will still participate, but in a true
"club (Sports) class ship..... The Europeans sure seem to be able to fill
these classes with "club class" gliders......heck, I've even offered to loan
out gliders myself for the sports class contests....JJ, I even offered one
to you when the Sports class nationals were in Elmira.....remember?

Just checked the entry list for Parowan, Tim's idea would eliminate 50
pilots out of the 74 that wish to fly the sports nationals this year.
Is this what we want? Sports class has been very successful because you
come to the contest with what you have, your ship and your talents.
Over the years there has been suggestions to not allow pilots with
diamond badges or not allow certain ships. Let's leave it alone, it's
working real fine.
Haven't we plowed this ground before?
