Jerry, If you are implying that RES planes need some form of help on the landing task, you should re-check the SWC scores. I'm fine competing heads up with the open guys.

Instead of devaluing landings I think the landing tasks should be made tougher. At the recent SWC contest they used a 100" tape and Skip Miller won by averaging in the mid 90s. I am disappointed when you go to a major contest like the NATS and they do a Mickey Mouse runway landing task. Learning to do more difficut landing tasks will make us all better fliers. And opening up another can of worms. I think there should be two landing tapes, one for RES and a shorter one for full house planes. If you are going to have flaps/al you ought to be able to hit a smaller target.
