Dear all,
As most of you know, the amendment proposals that were not discussed
during the last CIAM Plenary will be presented again at the next meeting.
One of these proposals may need further discussion. It concerns the
deletion of the weight limit for F6A airplanes. It has been pointed
to me that the amended rule (2 m maximum wingspan, no weight limit)
woudl open the way to multiplane monsters (think about a 2-metres, 15
kg, DA-150-powered Ultimate. This would obvioulsy negate the spirit
of the present AA rules.
One of the options I was offered was to further limit the wingspan
for biplanes, as it is done with some freestyle classes. However,
thinking about it and noting the fact that biplaned have completely
disappeared from the competition circuit for years., I tend to think
that the most adequate solution would be to limit AA competitions to
monoplanes.
Your input, please.
Guy R.
