Studying the NRA as a political model is not a bad idea
I think the AOPA might be a better model. They appear to have an effective
legislative program in place to protect general aviation from the excesses
of government. Their interests overlap our interests so maybe the AMA should
try to work
Hi!
Martin Kopplow has developed really nice technique. He prints directly on
kevlar. Check out his tailfeathers on the link below (you must join the
SALglider group in Yahoo to see them).

Thanks, Dave. . .that's good stuff! Interesting that 107 fps equates to
72.95 MPH.
Crude Rule of thumb: 2/3 FPS = MPH When I could run a 100 yard dash in 10
seconds (30 ft/sec), the coach said that was 20 MPH.

Actually, IMO, the whole list would love to get this info, and pictures

I've been reading this thread with great interest. One thing that I've not
noticed is something that I do on a zoom. On launch, I'm using a
full-camber. When I'm about to enter my zoom, I not only take out the
full-camber, but I go into a full reflex. My goal here is to get as much
speed built
Just a polite request to keep this sort of political rant off the
exchange. There's plenty of venues for this stuff. Soaring should be
a safe haven from politics.

While I agree with Barry's premise that partisan politics (while at the same time
sheepishly admitting to contributing to it in the past) are best discussed elsewhere,
it would be foolish of us to ignore the effect of lobbying efforts in our represented
republic.

Kevin,
WHAT work with the FAA has Dave Brown done? In his August article - (which should be
required reading for ALL soaring enthusiasts) he tells of his trip to the FAA; a
meeting in which he said he was shocked to discover that pilots regularly flew models
higher than 400 feet! Reminds me
He
was busy defending his WORLD title in Arizona!
Actually it was in New Mexico. I
was wondering when someone would post the top 3 of this event. Id also like to know what they flew
and what power packages they used.
Anyone?
Soaring should be a safe haven from politics.
We can't ignore politics because unfortunately it won't ignore us. I'd
wholehartedly agree that bringing in the NRA with all the baggage that
entails isn't at all constructive but at the other extreme just pretending
that government is going to look

on ignorance and misinformation to die, but it seems
to have a life of its own!
Would you right wing anti-American Wakos please find
another forum to express you hatred and ignorance

Martin,
I've only seen speculation here - no facts at all.
I'm not aware that anyone has presented any empirical data supporting the notion that
the government is disabling RC aircraft.

I am not sure that we can do (politics) that!
