Title: Boxers or whitie-tighties -- which helps your score the most?
Post by: Tim Wescott on April 13, 2017, 10:18:25 AM
What underwear has the most positive impact on flight scores in CLPA?  Boxers?  Briefs?  (Gasp!) None?  Does color matter?  I mean -- if it'll bump my score up ten points I'll go for the leopard-print thong.

If I happen to see your boxers/shorts while you are flying that means I'm not watching the plane and if that means I'm not watching the plane you are getting zero points. LL~ LL~ LL~

At least in free flight, Björn Borg underpants are good enough with classic airfoils like Benedek. With new carbon skinned LDA's & flappers, Diesel is clearly better. L

And what about the Teeny-Weenies in the Rose Bush? Now that I have permanently perfected my flying, I have to turn to supernatural forces to gain an edge. I know Howard has already started in with the voodoo, successfully, I am sad to report.

It's not the panties, it's in the movement.

Just ask Elvis.

OK Tim with this you are dangerously close to becoming one of those who just likes to run up his post tally.

Avoid polyester.  Especially on hot days.

Real MEN wear print pattern Boxers!

No idea what world champs wear! Or for that matter Howard!  Probably something with a clown nose on it!

 Actually, neither. A traditionally donned kilt gives the best advantage, setting the tone for your upcoming performance by making sure to face opposite the judges when bending over, stiff kneed, to pick up your handle.

Did I read correctly that someone previously mentioned wearing depends while flying, please verify. I guess it DEPENDS on how one might interpret it. Richard

 I suspect that for some, rather than being a strategy, the Depends may have been found to be a necessity while attempting to maneuver through the pattern.

 By comparison this is also an advantage of donning the kilt, similar to flying electric, you have much less cleanup afterwards.

Tim,
I kind of think before you worry about what undies give your number a rise,,  LL~
You would have more luck getting better scores by actually flying again,,

Hey, we're asking about airplane color and engine sound, surely we need to investigate absolutely everything (except for actual flying ability and airplane trim, of course) that might affect your score.

If the pilot is in shape and female, and only in underwear, I vote for the briefest briefs. And by all means, please lets agree to give her an award just for showing up that way!

John,
I fly at contests in C/L aerobatics since 1969, but I never ever have seen not any modeller comrade having  perfectly healthy mind.
And it is the beautiful world. Try to imagine everybody being absolutely normal. That world would be gray and boring...  :X
