Default RE: Updated Weight Requirements?

Fair enough. Who owns the scales used at the Nats, and how sure are we that the calibration weights are what they are? Also, both times I've gone to the Nats to be weighed, it was done outside, don't you think that being inside would be a much more controlled environment? I realize that it probably would be hard to do this for 100 or more competitors, many with two airplanes, but it sounds like a scale problem versus a rules problem. I think I would trust a NASA scale over about anything else.
