I think I was 2nd or 3rd last year with a 45 point flight. This year, I
was 7th with a 10 point flight. Boom failed on launch. Borrowed an
Organic for the last few flights.

Was anyone flying the Mark Drela designed Aegea 2M at the NATS?
The design for the Aegea 2M was posted to the Allegro-Lite group in
August 2002, so it seems to be contemporaneous with the Mantis 2M
the Organic 2M.

The real question is why fly different classes
Tom,
great seeing you this past week.. only 50.5 weeks til next year..
the real classes are those that are wing-span based.. 2 meter & unlimited we used to have standard too but that class was eliminated (partially my doing) in the mid 90s to make for more allowable time and greater

Another way to look at it is if you throw enough ducks at a problem,
you'll find one that works. I'm happy that everyone else likes to fly
Ducks.

Thanks for the thoughtful post. I suspect that there are quite a few
of us out here who, although we couldn't attend the NATS, are fans of
2 meter flying. I think that the demise of 2 meter is overrated and
over-reported. There are still a good bunch who appreciated the
