About the engine run

From:Gene Ulm
Roger

This f1c issue is an interesting one: engine runs that can not be accurately timed on the objective end and advancing performance on the subjective.   All seems to draw a fair amount of banter energy.

Idea: how about forgoing the engine run altogether; the clock starts when the engine quits, rather than when the model leaves your hand.  Use an altimeter to cut the engine say at 100m.   So  use whatever motor run you want, just as long as it doesn’t go over 100m.


Editor’s reply Gene, while the F1C might be upset at a gum bander replying on their behalf, maybe I can show them I understand better than a glider guy. Part of the power guy’s raison d’etre is firstly to have to most powerful, best sounding engine on the field, then to demonstrate that he can control that power and get his airplane higher that anyone else.



AmCup Score and Jr Team Scores

From: Jim Parker


The current 2021 AmCup scores has two ties, F1A and F1B and several other tight races. With  the Covid scramble of the Lost Hills Fab Feb contests rescheduled to October we should see excellent competition as the leaders try to hold off the end of the year hard chargers. Let Octo-Free Flight- fest begin!

Covid also messed up the Jr W Champs situation, the original Jr W Ch for 2020 in Deva Romina was cancelled, then scheduled to be flown with the Open W Ch in France in 2021 which was also cancelled. So the current FAI schedule is for the next Jr Champs to be in Bulgaria on Aug 1-4, 2022. The last Jr Team, 2018 flew in Pazardzik, Bulgaria. I was the team manager and can testify that we had a wonderful time at a well run contest. Time will only tell if the world will be in a new normal that will have save, easy travel to our FF events around the globe. For now let us enjoy our great sport as we can.

For general Jr Team info see the National Free Flight website, look under Competition and click to get the pull down menu and click Junior.  As of today, the old 2020 letter and Jr Team Program is still linked.  Charlie Jones, Alan Petterson and I will get this updated soon. The 2022 Jr Team selection Program is largely the same as the 2020 program. It is based on scores from the AmCup contests flown between June 1, 2021 an the end of the 2022 SCAT annual. There is no entry fee and once the 2022 Jr Team Program is posted I'll request all interested Jrs to send me the application form in the program.

Currently only two Jrs have scores,    F1B:  Ittai Kohavi 182.8 pts and , Skylar Donney 97.6pts.   In F1A, Noa Goldstien, Liad Friedman and Anat Goldstien  did well in contests earlier this year but prior to the June 1, 2021 program start. Also, in F1P, Henry Feister.

Don't let this dampen your interest!  There are plenty of contests still to fly.  Also, we're very interested in any new Jr F1A,B, P flyers. In recent years we have been challenged to field a full team (3 flyer in each of the three events).

HLG and CLG  These events will be flown from the Glider Pen and there will special awards for these events : Strong Arm  Glider Award.  The overall winner of the aggregate results of the HLG and CLG classes. Points are awarded for the place in the event. This means first will get 1 , second 2 , etc. If a person does not fly in one of the events, for the purposes of this their points will be one more than the number of people in the event. The winner is person with the least number of points.  This award is open to flyers of all age categories.  Magic Glider Award. This is for all youth flyers in the same categories , there is a small difference in that half points are awarded for the  CLG class, making this class more important as there are more youth flyers in this category.  For both awards if there is a tie it will be decided by the sum of all the times. Double times for CLG in the youth category.  National Cup Points.

 

Golden Age:  Any post NOS design published, kitted or flown competitively between 1 Jan 1957 and 31 Dec 1969 scaled if needed to 1/2 A size, powered by either Holland Hornet 049-051 or Cox TD 049-051.  Construction must replicate the original design, no carbon fiber to be used in construction.  NOS flight rules.   Gas powered only for this award.

 

Vintage FAI :  5 flights, no rounds, First flight before 9 A.M. will be timed to the ground, that time will be used as a tie breaker if a tie persists after two regular flyoff rounds.  Flyoffs if needed will be scheduled for 1 P.M.  Flyoff type. longer flights vs shorter engine runs will be determined by the consensus of the fliers involved and weather conditions at the time.  Era specification and engine runs per NFFS  

 

Combined events will be separated for National Cup points. AMA gas events will be determined AMA vs Classic when registered for National Cup.

 

 

2021:  Roger Morrell is out of the country in October 2021 and Brian Van Nest is the CD for 2021 , Thank you very much Brian. Glenn Schneider is running the AMA events. 8/26

 

Rest of the story: As most of you know Norm Furutani, one of the founders of this event retired from running it after  the 2018 event.  This event is very popular along with the FAI events.   Glenn Schneider has offered to run the AMA events with a number of volunteers.  This is very much appreciated by me and by those who want to take part.  We have tried to maintain the spirit of the event. Popular events with the largest participation are the HLG and CLG,  Gollywock, E-36, Vintage FAI and Nos Rubber.  At the Winter Classic in the past we have promoted special events, typically boosted by some donated $ in the prize money.  This year we have the Golden Age ½ A Gas models.

 

 

Most of the people who have offered to help are AMA/Nos gas flyers. Glenn can probably do with some help, particularly on Saturday from some with electric, glider or rubber model experience.
