These events are not "denigrating", but they may be "degenerating"
instead into low participation events for so-called experts. Remember,
the experts were beginners once. How do you get to Carnegie Hall?
Practice man, practice. Same thing with winning at the Kibbie Dome or
Johnson City, practice man, practice.
If one has the burning desire to win, becoming an expert certainly
becomes easier. Notice I said expert status doesn't necessarily come
faster. All the experts I know became experts by failing and finishing
down in the pack a lot at first.
Now I will get down off my soapbox and go back to building a
Hughes H-1. I want to "degenerate" into an expert scale model flyer. I
need only 22 more failures and then I might be ready to be classified
an expert by my competitors.
