Between Kent and USIC, how about having a BLG event that uses the SO
trial event design specs? They are 40 cm span, 10 cm chord, 28 cm
stab span and 1.5 gm min weight. We need some flying experience with
these to see if the event is viable. Experience in several ceiling
heights would be useful. I know light models have more appeal, but
the future of SO may be in the balance here.
