Allow me to offer an overlooked reason why I enjoy the TD contests. In the process, I will give the LSF a big thank you. I'm a new flier in North Alabama, and the comments about cost and rules, and skill that I've been reading are true. Yet we have had several spur of the moment contests for the level 2 fliers (me). It turns out that the excitement of a contest is sort of sneaking up on me and it wouldn't happen except for the LSF level 2 requirements. I'm sure that after I satify level 2, I'll be looking for the larger level 3 contest. So give the LSF it rightful due. Have a happy Thanksgiving. David
