Being new retread back into C/L and being X-combat ,Rat orientated for past history, there is a lot to catch up on and sort out, Pilot wise and rule wise to fly Stunt.
My attention is drawn to Stunt or PA or whatever is proper modern term....
So what gets my interest is Building and Flying our own masterpiece(BOM+AP=
). Designing my own is is icing on the cake.
My understanding from past history is BOM and AP in all Stunt competitions. Apparently wrong for modern day.
If we have no BOM and No AP then all that is needed is a big 'old style combat plane' with landing gear and a
'stunt run' type engine. Might need flaps, might not.
Well, just lost most of my interest.
So are 'Real AMA Stunt' airplanes only for the NAT's? That is along drive for me and to build an airplane for use once a year or less is not very smart(?).
Now to what I have seen in the only contest for me in recent history, I am almost positive that Open
was BOM and AP rules. This was at Baton Rouge.
I flew beginner so not 100% sure this is fact. Should be.
I really hope that Arkansas and Texas (Mississippi?)contest are BOM and AP for Open at least.
I think Louisiana is (BR)
I don't see why components prefabbed molded or otherwise from an outside your shop source would violate the BOM.
Assemble,,Build and paint or cover it BOM. Or leave it Gel Coated.( Gel coat, heavy stuff and brittle.)
If you open the box and find a 90% complete airplane that is not BOM.
Is this the Stunt Airplane of the future?
