But the scale entries were divided between Precision Scale, Sport Scale, and Profile Scale.  I flew in Sport Scale, where there were just 4 entries.

This is my entry in the NW Regionals.  A post-war Belgian lightplane called Tipsy Jr. Sport Scale.  Not a very accurate scale, but was intended to be a stunter just resembling a scale plane.  I dolled it up a bit for the contest with a pilot and some more scale details.

I'm not real proud of myself entering this one in scale, but I did it based on past Regionals having so few scale entries, I wanted to boost participation.
