A few years ago at the Nats, Artie was flying well in the top 10 (perhaps leading), when he landed and a little part of his skeg popped off. Nobody noticed, but Artie insisted in taking a zero for that landing. That's sportsmanship. Ryan RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

This happened after his scorecard was handed in. He realized what had happened when he put his plane away then came to scoring and had it corrected. Arthur Markiewicz, A class act indeed!

[RCSE] Okay, change the subject to something more informative! Let's talk about The golden rules!!! shall we?!?!?!
Rules 101 Class is in session. Let me see a show of hands of those not wishing to attend... hit delete now! :-( Hey, what are some of the gentlemen rules we all should follow but they really don't get mentioned or posted?? You know... like if you join a thermal and one guy is turning one way, you should join in by turning in the same direction, etc... What are some other good guidelines to follow in the quest for GREAT SPORTSMANSHIP!!?!?! Hello Gordy :-) (can't resist any longer) What is good sportsmanship anyways? Jumping in a corn field to help a fellow pilot find his plane and then having an allergic reaction all over your body because of this good deed??? You bring a quick shade and you let other share in your sun blocking device WHAT IS GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP AND can you provide examples? I'm sure in the process one can pick-up on something new and learn. After all, it's not like we compete to attain a $$$ purse for a top standing, right. Just throwing this out there. We can talk about contest format for the next NATS all day and we have all year to do this. Thanks, Edgar The Soaring Junkie P.S. Yes, I'm bored and miss that Muncie flying! I hate to burst your bubble, John. But, yes, many many need the contest format to have fun. Yes, I pitty them too. Especially when they argue over the rules!! The really good pilots don't argue. They just show up and compete. The others have to fuss over the details. But what are we going to do? They are a large bunch and sometimes they buy the soda pop. Here's an idea: Elvis impersonators! That's what we need. DANG! Pathetic. Bill Swingle Janesville, CA Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Supply enough new, neatly folded heavy duty garbage bags during the downed recovery process of your buddy's first attempt at DS'ing. During the recovery process avoid extended periods of guttural laughter, instead opting to talk quietly in a soft soothing voice like his mummy would. If it was his brand new $1500 aircraft with no time on it that you egged him on to bury, maybe keep your distance... Flying High wrote: Rules 101 Class is in session.
