Default Competition Ground Crew

Andrzej,

Others will give you much better advice than mine, but about half of
the contests I attend are without a crew. However, those contests are
also attended by fellow members of my local club, and they help me
when I don't have a crew.

You may find yourself in a pinch of you attend a contest without
making any preparations at all. The organizers, I'm sure, will do
their best to help you, but they have no obligation to come get you if
you land out. You must be prepared for Charlie Lite's friendly jabs
about the "Clueless crewless".

Don't let the lack of a crew stop you though. Contact the organizers
and let them know your situation. They would much rather have you
there without a crew than not at all!
