Rudy,
We've been flying a yearly Gentle Lady contest for almost 15 years. Simple
rules and 'no zoom' make it easy to host and fun to fly. A few years ago
we opened it to other 2 meter 2 channel ships also (for those who don't
have a Gentle Lady) but most still fly the GL.

Are any clubs flying any type of One-Design event? Closest to this
locally is the occasional CSS Sailaire contest. One-design is a major
component of sailboat racing where a tightly regulated class of boat is
standardized as much as possible helping to level the equipment playing
field which results in a focus on sailing -- or soaring talent. In many
classes, budget is controled by restricting use of high-cost aramid fibers
in the sails and only permitting use of standard aluminum section masts
and booms, vs. costly carbon spars. Perhaps this could be implemented
within the 2-meter event for the high-scoring pilot of a given
desing. Ducks, Gnomes? The question is, which plane? Hmmm.
