Brian stated: "What if a flyer just used one of his flights to test an idea about a building or tree line advantage?"
To me a contest is just that, not a personal soaring experiment to try something and then if does not work you get out of the failure. If you want to experiment, go early and try the experiments and then be prepared for the contest. The long haul steady pilot is the guy that knows his ship and what different conditions yield. I think of TK, Rich B., McCarthy, Don Harris, Daryl, Joe, Skip and others when I think of this kind of prepared pilot. They have put their flight time in and know what to expect in all conditions, that is why they win and others moan about the what-ifs. Just my feeling on the matter and I know that the Atlanta guys had this on the board from the get-go, so all knew the rule. Just wanting to know what folks are thinking.
