<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Never the less it has been done and to
everyone's agreement. As far as maneuver changes I agree with you that it
should be posted. We can not predict weather and it is a discretionary
thing best left up to the CD in the best interest of safety. I believe
safety is to be considered above rules in these conditions. Our
contests can bring 30-40 people in the spring and many of them are newbies
or returning sportsman. It works for our region.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I wont disagree with you on CERTAIN conditions
issues. That's why the CD has the option to not judge the
takeoff/landing(0 or 10). I has been done on more then one occasion in
D6 as the wind can get a little testy in the spring time. Leave the
rule in and let the CD decide at the time of the contest.

<DIV>I don't think takeoffs and landings should be judged. At some
contests and field conditions, it is simply dangerous to force everyone to
land in front of the judges. This is especially true if the wind
conditions change during a flight and the pilot is expected to land
downwind cause that is the direction he took off. I have seen it happen.
Takeoffs and landings are not aerobatic maneuvers by anyone's
definition.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>As for weight, if the 2m size becomes the only restriction, then you
might see some IMAC legal biplanes entered, weighing 25+ lbs. A 2m
Ultimate bipe would be huge. Would that be a problem? Depends on who is
flying it, I suppose. Would that be an advantage? If someone wins with
one, then it will be a perceived advantage. Everyone will have to have
one.</DIV>
