I had a few other "places" with non-kits. 8th F3j and 10th in Unlimited
with a moldie, but the molds for that moldie sit in my basement. I
guess I qualify as the only non ARF moldie on the field.
2M was 6th with an Aegea 2M with my own pod design.
RES was 1st with a Bubble Dancer, but the pod is actually the pod for my
F3b moldie with a light layup and canopy instead of nosecone. 35 oz and
yes, it was built in a 2 week timeperiod. Sometimes called Barney Dancer
since it is purple and green.

Can anyone tell me the highest finish of a kit (not ARF) or scratch
built in
the RES and Unlimited contests at the Nat's.
First in HL was my Taboo GT. You might say that the Taboo is an ARF but
since I make the wings for that (ARF ?) kit maybe that counts.
First in F3J was Tom Kiesling's scratch built Supra.
First in 2M was Tom Kiesling's scratch built 2M Mantis.
First in Unlimited was Tom Kiesling's scratch built Supra.
First in RES was Mike Lachowski's scratch built Bubble Dancer.
Looks like a clean sweep for the ESL and scratch builders. The ESL
didn't take Nostalgia but I guess all of the Nostalgia flyers are at
least kit builders.
