Squeak has an awesome flight…

… and becomes the meat in the sandwich.

“Seems like Andrew took away points (perhaps unfairly) that Attila could have used to win the meet.”

Attila replies:

“I totally agree with you. I was most disappointed not to pocket 1000 points, instead I got 930. I know I am a greedy little bastard when it comes to the scores I am getting. I won the day (5th flown, task 7), but still… I told my concern to Tim, but he doesn’t seem to understand the unfairness of it. Unfair it is, because a group of pilots confined to take a start gate and yet the pilots who don’t have to do this benefit. It is already a bit too friendly to let guys go anytime they want. Now they give them extra bonus for not being able to or wanting to hang around until the real starts. I can’t belive that everytime there is a comp in Australia we should have to go through these pretty obvious things. Let alone we used FTV again because two people supporting it out of the whole crowd, Lenny and Tim. And it is going to be this way as long as they are 2/3 of the Australian competition comitee and they clearly NOT representing the opinion of their fellow pilots. And they use FTV for team selection. Can you understand this?

Best Regards Attila”
