Per the current AMA Rules.  .012" x 42' +/-3".   I just now checked it twice.

Colombo is the reigning Huntersville champ and current top dog.

Ed Brzys & Pat MacKenzie weren't at Huntersville.  A light workout for Ronnie.

The contest went well enough despite an ongoing two weeks of rain and COLD weather.

Speed Limit, 1/2A, F2D and Fast F2D were completed.  Results are posted under results.

Here is Lou Scavone firing up a MacKenzie brothers plane with the 2.4 at will.
