*Important differences to club/sports, just to be clear on the facts:

Water allowed
All tasks (unlike sports which doesn't do assigned tasks)
Counts for standard class US team position, not club class
Only standard class gliders allowed
Handicap adjustment limited to LS4. You're welcome to come in a
Standard Cirrus but will get the LS4 handicap

Why: 3 pilots are now signed up for Standard Nationals Montague. Other
ideas for getting participation up are most welcome. Not sure how
"sounds like club class" helps that goal.

Just a reminder and slight correction John.

Club class is not Sports class and Club class does fly assigned tasks.

Good news about slightly handicapping the Standard class this year.
