I am going to invoke the name of the Great Kahuna himself, God be with his soul, Jerry Votaw would have told you to take those extreme examples of stretching the rules and stuff them. I do believe he would have called them all manner of ugly plus a few more choice words.
So, do you all want to race Scale Warbirds or not?
HHMMMM, Certainly. Here is a slice of real Jerry Votaw. Once upon a time I asked Jerry himself to assure me that I would be race legal FOREVER if we molded a large VERY scale "Rare Bear". This is what he said to me: "Chuck, If anybody EVER tries to give you a problem for flying the dead scale airplane that I know you and Darren will build for MY races, you send them to me."
I still miss Jerry terribly.
Jeff, I get that you are the starter of this thread. You may never fly with me until you admit that you have known all along what the spirit of scale is. Please stop being so facetious.
Chuck
