If I'm over the desert or miles from the nearest human being while over the forest, why does the government care if I do a loop or a roll at 1,000 AGL?

Scoring rules inside the aerobatic box were not changed, yet out of the box we wanted to do everything differently. For the first time in the world, we ran a championship where the judges' scores were recorded electronically using an App, even with Nick Buckenham, President of the FAI Aerobatics...
