Seems to me if you allow pair flying the trophy should be to the
team, not any individual.

least given zero weight in the team selection points.
Alternatively, take it out & restructure the nationals to align
with the WGC & EGC - ie, Club, STD, 20m; and 15m, 18m, Open.

Club, 15m (wingspan) & Open (everything else!). Team (pairs only)
flying should be allowed if they desire, so we can gain experience
in this important skill for international competitions. Select the
teams as we have been doing now, 40:60 - though select the top four
(8 pilots total) from 15m & Open Class, then assign these pilots to
their best team mate & class for their experience (the way the
polish do it atm). Naturally Club only takes the top two pilots.

give them all more time to prepare as a team. Eg, 3 months between
our two selection nationals atm. I still don't know who'll be my
team mate in Finland.

> The Australian Nationals: For those who don't care about
international selection, but want to be the national champion, or
are fortunate enough to have more time off to do both comps! Run as
four classes, Club, STD, 15m, 18m, Open. No team flying, nationals
would run as it is now.

Australian teams as priority one. So I'd only need to spend 2wks
annual leave here. This would then allow me to do a multiple of
things in my remaining 2wks: squad week, do a coaching event, long
distance week, international comp, two state comps or the other
nationals. Winning!
