[NSRCA-discussion] Nats Final Scores

I¹m sure there WAS an exemption...it was somewhere in the general guidelines
though, NOT specific to pattern.  It simply said that Electric models didn¹t
have to be checked for noise.  But we looked through the entire rulebook
almost cover to cover and it¹s not there.  I¹m guessing it was removed from
the general area and nobody paid any attention.

If someone has an old rule book and can find the section, and compare it to
the new one, it would be interesting to see.  Rather moot now though.

It certainly makes sense that electrics should have to comply though, and
I¹m sure Dave L. had intended too, and was surprised that he wasn¹t.    One
of the issues seems to be ground clearance.  The large props are so close to
the pavement that it seems to almost amplify the sound.  Raising the
airplane up even an inch or two seems to have an effect on the Db meter.
Never thought that longer landing gear would be a component of noise
reduction.
