(4500mah) would have got me there. After a few landing gear repairs, It would never make weight so that takes me out of attending the Nationals. Weight rule makes no sense, but it always gets voted down. The 2 meter rule is the neutralizer.

voted on, the proposal gets soundly defeated. Can't we all name a pilot who moved up to Masters and then dropped out? We should never have rules that discourage participation. This includes the rule about trying higher classes and not being able to move
back down.</span><span style="color:black"></span></p>

get a club flyer to compete when there are 4 Allures and a Proteus in his class. This is not supposed to be a money competition.

who would judge?) The sequence would still change every 2 years. Think of the advantages in judging as FAI pilots and Masters usually judge each other. This would eliminate the need for development of a new Masters schedule and let the sequence committee
concentrate on the other 3 classes.</span><span style="color:black"></span></p>

3 more awards, but you can't expect Sportsman pilots to spend the time and money to go to 2 day contests. This way, a pilot could do family stuff on Saturday and compete on Sunday.</span><span style="color:black"></span></p>
