Can you remember how Sepp scored in that 02WC?
I remember that Tempest, fantastic in pictures, there was a great deal of shouting and cheering when it first came on the scene.
Who did it hold up in static compared to the Euro Vets'?
His scores could be a real good indication regarding the US-Euro scale discussion.
A cracking airplane in my opinion, how did it stand up to FAI thinking?

Sorry but I can't find Sepp Uiberlacher in my files for the 2002 F4C WC in Canada.
The Canadian and US entrants according to my list were:

CA - Neil Copeman - DH 82C Tiger Moth
CA - Bill Logan - De Havilland DH-10
CA - Gerard McHale - De Havilland DH-2
CA - Jim Moss - Fokker EV
CA - Jim McIntyre - Fokker DR1
US - Jack Sheeks - ?
US - Dale Campbell - ?
US - Stephen Ashby - Kawasaik Ki - 45
US - Hal Parenti - Ryan Fireball
US - Stephen Sauger - Fairchild Ranger
US - Robert Benjamin - Aeronca K

Anyway, here are the results that I have sorted after the static score.
For some reason the list only contains the top-39 entrants.

Thanks for that Red B.
Of course if I'd read the post somewhat closer I'd have noticed the Sepp seems to have been on the reserve bench.
Obviously didn't get a chance to play which was a shame.
I remember that Tempest just Blitz'd the Top Gun Static. People fainted, including me when I saw the pictures... it would have been nice to do a FAI comparison.

Sepp had some hard luck with his engine at the trials.... A true gentleman about it.

I had an opportunity to view his aircraft up close, truly a work of art and he's an excellent pilot as well. I had the opportunity to chat with him a couple weeks ago at the Chatham scale rally, I'm sure we'll be seeing more of him in the near future....

Static scores ... sigh, be sure to have your documentation organized, any confusion at this level nets a zero score, my paint chips were disallowed and my 3 views scored poorly as I didn't document discrepancies for the instance I built. I could write a book about what not to do... [&o]

Is Sepp back living in Canada? Last I heard he had moved to Fl. I saw his Tempest at Toledo some years back.. was a super model. He's a very nice guy as well.

I wonder if Sepp is still selling his plane plans and parts? A company on the UK was carrying them for a while.. not sure they still are?
