I'm still searching for my next IMAC plane. I have built the Colombo Anderson 24% Extra (it's in my avitar), but they make a 31 and a 34%. Could you look at the picture or a 31% and tell me, in your opinion, if this would be close enough to an Extra 300L to pass (provided I have a pilot and panel)? I know the fuselage is a bit streched, but I also know that there are variations on other brands. I'm just looking for opinions. All would be appreciated.

Dave,
from the 'looks' of it, id say yes. what are the dimensions of the plane? IIRC, 10% is the rule for deviation.
website for the planes?

im sure columbo wouldnt make a plane that wasnt able to compete in IMAC.... would be very unprofitable... IMOHO...

The IS NO dimension rule for IMAC - just have a model which is easily recognizabe to the declared full scale craft- Read the rules - all the nitpicking is gone -
