It worked out quite well actually despite the initial thoughts of it being a bit strange,, but well heck I am strange so what do you expect!
Not used to thinking of my plane in terms of pounds , only ounces, but hey the scale was in pounds so it made more sense than I did,,
well done Richard,
and thanks for making the contest run smoooooootttttthhhhh

Thank you, Richard! Like Mark says, it's sorta strange to think of our planes in pounds and ounces, but 2 lb 13 oz does sound a lot better than 45 oz, when the blue & white Ted Twister is concerned. I weigh mine on an Ohaus triple beam balance, with the optional weights on the end, then convert from grams to ounces. Not that hard.

Your team did a great job...lots of hands were busy, without seeming to be asked or told to do the necessary chores. Our contests, a lot of folks just show up to sit in a chair and gas off, when there's work to be done. At that time, they leave, or continue to sit/gas!    Steve
