FRC 747 - Flight Crew, Cleared For Takeoff!

[New Lightning]

So I'm just curious because no on else has asked this but what were some of the polices that were enacted that would have made it hard on the team?

I know one of the teams I used to mentor left the school district because the director of the career center they had us working out of didn't like FIRST as a program, really weird, and made it really hard on the team to get resources. They were able to retain their number but had a long fight too keep it and all the old robots and some of the tools.

Also how were you able to transition to the number 747. If you were forming a new team wouldn't you have to get a rookie number. The only way I understand that you can get another number that isn't a rookie number is if there was an old team outside the school district that has been since disbanded, and that you have now since restarted.
