Each additional echelon
will be chosen from the "Pool" of
talent available.
Good individual flying skills, team skills, and attitude
will be criteria for selection
Since we have seen so many
people interested in CRW and improving their skills we
would like to have all those
capable attend. We don't want to merely hand pick the
best and bench the rest. If we are to continue enlarging
our
community we want to include as many as possible. However,
lack of skill, dangerous flying, poor team skills and
bad decisions may be grounds for disqualification. |

based on the following criteria;
Flying skills, Team skills, slot difficulty,
split times
Flying skills - Exit, echelon,
traffic, approach /dock, Formation, post formation
safety
Team skills - Attitude, Attendance (being in the right place at the right time)
etc.
