I am not sure just when the 2 meter class became codified. There was only one class at the first LSF contest (1971) - held at the Nelson glider ranch, Livermore, Ca. BTW, that same year, an early form of f3b was flown at the NBSS contest in Santa Rosa, Ca. Regis
I am not sure when the 2-meter class was codified. I first flew 2-meter at the LSF Tournament at Lockport, IL in 1979 and was the first contest for the Winglet Spica. In 1980 and 1981, 2-meter event was still unofficial and flown the day after Standard Class and Unlimited. In 1983, 2-meter was flown at the same time as Standard and Unlimited. I remember it well as I flew all three classes with the Spica by changing the wing tips between classes. I am not sure about 1982 but think it was an official event since it was not flown after the Nats was over. I have a photo of Carl Goldberg talking to me about winglets as I was changing from the winglets to the standard class wing tips for the next flight.
