RE: F3a The Future
I can't and won't argue with the guy that supports me and many others. I understand the process and I understand the reasoning. It wasn't a ridiculous amount of time ago that you were in the lower classes and had somephenomenalideas and I can't believe it didn't crush you when people wouldn't listen. Again, I get it. We all have to pay our dues. Imagine if some of your processes had of been considered "back in the day". We may just be further ahead than where we are now. All I'm saying is don't underestimate the lower classes.<div></div><div>It's not too hard to figure out that I fly electric (much to Bryan's chagrin). I even have it tougher than FAI because Masters does not get the 1% tolerance. I'll still make weight period. I do believe there is an advantage to IC in the sense that as IC flies, the power to the engine remains the same and in reality, becomes more efficient as the flight goes on and weight comes off. Electrics take off and land with the exact same weight but have less power as the flight progresses. To me, that's an advantage. The current rule weight may have been in standing long before electrics were thought of but electrics were taken into consideration because they are specifically stated in the rule. I just wonder if there is one single IC guy out there that says electrics and IC should be both weighed under the exact same rule.</div>
