Post by: Walter Hicks on February 15, 2016, 05:34:35 PM

This is a Dick Sarapolus 1/2 A TBM Avenger 26" span , I made the wing thicker as I will airfoil it this will be used as demo flying at
the Northwest Regionals 2016 in Roseberg ,Or ,I may make another one and use it for .15 carrier.

Is there a contest there for 1/2A Profile?  What rules?  If it is a contest, can there be proxy entries.  I have one of several 1/2A multi-engine airplanes I could send up there if there is a contest.

 Looks great! Please keep us posted as you get it finished. This would be a good one to add in the 1/2A section too.

The contest flyer lists authentic, sport and profile, "plus demo events".  http://flyinglines.org/16.reg.flyer.pdf (http://flyinglines.org/16.reg.flyer.pdf)

You could use the AMA 1/2a scale rules

we are hesitant to add more scale events to the calendar now,, the judges have other commitments ( like flying stunt) and would really like to be able to perform at their best when they have their turn,, hopefully this year we can be a bit more sheduled in the flying portion of the Scale event for everyones benefit

Sorry to al, I l been out of town and not able to respond to post. I should have been more clear in my original post. The Northwest Regional
Contest in Roseberg ,Or does have scale events . This year to promote an event that may or may not be in the future ( after 2016)
we are doing demo flights or static displays of Fun Scale and 1/2 A Scale. 1/2 A Scale is not an event at this years regional. And it may not
be in the future. Hope this clears things up. Sorry again for any confusion by my post I am still learning how to communicate effectively
on the internet I am a face to face communication type person.
