Bill,

 The math is a little off. A 0.4g motor at a 175' site would be 2/3 of a full motor flight (0.6g) at ~260'. If Brett flew 42 minutes at 175', what would he do at a 260' site? Probably greater than 45 minutes is my guess.
 

 Although 45 minutes was not achieved for the "old" rules 55 cm F1D, I believe it would be theoretically possible on a warm day at a high enough site.
 

 I believe 30 minutes will be achieved at Lakehurst once the hole is fixed.
