Default 2011 USA Proposed Competition Rules Changes Posted.

Good to see you put back the "finish" call, but wouldn't it be a good
idea to also make a call entering the pattren? With the 4-mile call,
finish, and entering down-wind for runway X, a clear flow progression
would be shown and spacing for pattern entry would be enhanced.
Calling entry to the pattern is
good airmanship and should be included in the rules. As observed at
Parowan this year, only about half the pilots were making a pattern
entry call. If I don't know who else is trying to land I can't make
adjustment to accomodate them.
Food for thought,
JJ
