I downloaded it to my facorites and watch it frequently.  Looks like the Brits have more fuin then we do.

It's interesting that alot of the models have USA markings, also the wind! Slow flight's got to be tough.

I like this quote....

Most memorable quote of the day, "Carrier looks like simple event; but trying to flying a speed model, a powered kite, and doing precision spot landings on a raised platform, all with the same model, is bloody near impossible."

Just a personal feeling as I watch the mentioned video.  I don't think the rules difference has anything to trip my wonderment. It is so evident to me that I see more fun in the faces of the Brits than I do at U.S. meets I attend, other than the fun one sees while atending the Brodak Carrier event. The video does not indicate National or regional championship, and the video was not taken at just one event as you can see from the differences in the decks used.  I have been the ED  for Carrier in two different "Nats" locations and have worked the Carrier team in 5 or 6 other locations, and the competition there is intense, something that the video does not show.
