No that's not what I meant.

Here are the thicknesses that are usually accepted for common films:

Y2K2 - .3 to .4 microns (.0000138" avg)
Polymicro - .9 microns (.0000353")
PPP (old) - .7 microns (.0000276")
OS Film - .5 microns on a good day (.0000197")
Ultrafilm 1.5 microns (.0000591")

This info and a lot more is in the files section for this group.

    This issue isn't specifically addressed in the rules. There is nothing that recognizes record trials flying after a contest, just the continuation of a series of flights after a contest, which doesn't pertain to indoors.

    Will there be a separate sanction for the extra time at Kent? If so, the two-timers rule would be in effect. If not, There could be a challenge to the legitimacy of any records set, I think.
