If A6 covering is merely set at any material at least .300g/sq", that allows your stash of unobtainium to be used, along with the newbies's trip to the grocery store to find something weighing THE SAME.

And how will a person prove their airplane is actually covered with such
weighted film? Process your model and a covering sample as well? If a
newbie wants to use grocery store plastic then fine, but why limit the
"pros" to such a restriction? A newbie is not going to do 10 minutes
anyhow no matter what it is covered with. This whole debate is starting
to seems to me people have good flying planes in their model boxes and
do not want to change anything so if that is the case, then the
motivation is to maintain status quo so why not use the rules for the
Nats/USIC as written for the AMA proposal? But that brings me back to
why does it have to be an AMA event anyhow?
