George,
You are correct, The FAI Limitation has not been changed.
Perry's plane would be too heavy, IF it really weights 15 lbs.
The LSF Board is not the LSF Police.
You all know the design and the intent of the program.
If one willingly s t r e t c h e s the intent of the rules, who is one
kidding besides oneself.
Guys, its a personal achievement program, are you proud of yourself and
what YOU have done to achieve a particular level?
Best of thermals
