Last saturday we had our first Q500 NCPL 46 race. To say it was windy is an understatement. The pylons were blowing over the start timer clock was down most of the time blown over We lost about 10 airplanes to takeoff midairs and other wind related crashes. But the diehards would not call the race. I quit after losing one plane to a takeoff midair,soon there were one plane heats Boy is that fun!!!!! So at what wind speed should a race be not started or called???? I know the AMA says something around 35-40 but that I think is way to high. When does it become stupid and maybe some safty issues come in to play???? We don't race in the rain it seems to me that a number could be set on wind conditions where a race would be stopped.or ,not started.
