FAI F3AL

[VicenteRC]

So am I.  There is a good reason.  I have the chance to visit the AMA 
museum at Muncie this last Nats.  I got a fantastic tour by Mr. 
Lagrange.  In the tour I have the opportunity to see model airplanes 
that broke records (cross country, altitude, etc).  I asked "What is 
the number 1 requirement in model airplane to break a record?  Answer:  
The model cannot be more than 11 lbs.  After the tour I have a true 
answer why we cannot allow more than 11 lbs.  Mr. Lagrange really 
said, "Anything that is more than 11 lbs. is not consider a model 
airplane"
