That's actually one of the last tweaks we are debating. I want a set of weight compatible events on Wednesday that will utilize the long day. The events chosen are light, and lightly participated.

However, a concern is that if we have too many events in one day, it will be difficult for the people who fly all the events. A couple of people fly all the Wednesday events listed. Personally, I like to choose one event per timeslot, and rearranging the schedule gives me the opportunity to try to new categories.

A proposed compromise is to run another event across both days.

Intermediate Stick is one possibility. I like that one because, just like I think F1M should be allowed through natural selection to replace PP, F1D ought to be allowed to replace Int. Stick. Int Stick used to be a great stepping stone to F1D, but now it is very close to being the same thing.

35cm is another option. That one has the same FAI best 2 flights out of 6 as F1D, so there is an argument to running it concurrent with F1D.

We don't have a strong preference one way or the other yet.
