Absolutely! In my opinion, the Sports Nats was an extremely well managed
contest, and that's coming from someone who is used to the habitually
well run Cordele contest. Management, tasking, scoring, and weather were
spot on. The only hang up on tasking was due to a competitor's wildly
malfunctioning radio that not only had a stuck mic, but was spewing
noise over a range of channels. This effectively prevented a desirable
task change on the last day.
The "Lime Crew" and Dick ran an efficient launch, especially considering
the limitations of the field. I'd note also that many of the line crew
are young pilot residents of CCSC. They got to see competition soaring
up close and personal. I hope it made a favorable impression on them.
They sure impressed me.
The weather was excellent (mostly), management was top notch, the food
was good, the facilities were CCSC (none better), the racers and crews
were great. Got to see a lot of old friends, made a lot of new friends.
Only landed out once. What more could one want?
