FAI is 5000 plus 50 for inconsistencies. My understanding is he was spot checked and failed with the particular batteries that were chosen for the flight. This is one time I hope that my information is just dead wrong.<br>><br>> Scott A. McHarg<br>> VSCL / CANVASS U.A.S.

Joseph put in some decent flights today but I've heard that he failed weight on Site 1 at 5052 g. If that's true, his flight will be disqualified and probably knock him out of the top 10 as that was his better flight. Joseph has worked his butt off. What a crappy way to not make it.<br>>><br>>> Either way, he has done and will continue to do a great job! He has impressed me the most and has come so very far in a short time.
