TomParsons Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: "Primary or Sportsman?" 05-10-02, 22:05z  Just to kick off some discussion, I thought I'd bring up something I've been thinking about lately. I'm looking ahead to the summer, by which time I'll hopefully be getting comfy in a Pitts S-2A partnership, racking up some hours learning and practicing figures in one airplane (rather than the Extra/Citabria/Pitts trail-mix of acro experience I have so far!), and getting exposed to the competition environment as a volunteer. Here's the question: For my first competitions, should I fly the Primary sequence, or go for broke and fly Sportsman? I don't mind taking extra time before entering in Sportsman, but I'm not sure if it's more valuable experience to fly Primary a little sooner instead. Tom P.
