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.
