Yeah,
I wish they would have gotten rid of this rule. The only South West Region IMAC contest that enforced it last year was Sam in Las Vegas. He is an Air Force Officer so his training demands enforcement. He can't get me this year because both of my IMAC planes now have both pilot and panel. The Tucson Shootout does not impose a score penalty, they are more strict. No Pilot and Panel, you don't fly. They were pretty liberal on the "realistic part though. One guy had a skull for a pilot, looked cool, but not realistic. Probably a better policy than a 1% penalty. Either it's a rule or it's not.
