Gordy is right. I made a poor word selection. No one FORCES anyone to do anything.
My intention was to say that, in order to remain competitive, you will likely find it necessary to go to stronger, more expensive planes. This makes it harder for sport flyers who do not have big budgtes to enter into a competitive position. We have seen this in auto racing. Now there are restricter plates on the intake systems to limit the power of the cars. Things were getting too fast and too dangerous so they are restricting that part of the competitive race. I think US style winch launched TD competitions could take a lesson from this approach. Thanks for correcting me Gordy.
