As has been explained before on these threads, a competitor will not be allowed to fly in both, just like it is now prohibited to fly Open and and Advanced.

Which should be the factor/s to take the correct desicion either to fly expert or open?

And there is another factor. You can fly a non-BOM compliant airplane in the Expert category.. This can run the full range of such machines, from a hand-me-down, to a borrowed aircraft, to one custom built and given to you, to one that slips out of a cardboard box for $150, to a $4,000 masterpiece.

Does this mean that no appearence points are awarded to anyone or just not to the BOM compliant airplanes?

Randy,
Expert would be run IAW Expert/skill class rules. If you built it, you get appearance points. If you did not build it, no appearance points, Also the same with Advanced. Just because it is the Nats does not change anything.

Hey, I'm going for Expert. I can seldom win a local contest in Expert where I come from, but unless somebody bags more sand than I, I can be Expert National Champion. That'll show the folks back home.
Hi Keith,

PS: Am I the only one that remembers hearing all these same doomsday arguments many years ago when the Advanced class was added to the Nationals format?
