In the event we had in May we had twelve fliers all with great planes and they were broken down into two groups, A and B groups. The CD broke the fliers to the different groups. Then you flew the round and did well then you were put in the higher group and
if you in the A group and did poorly then you were</span><span style="font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:blue">
