FAI ratifies records of illegal flights.
1/8th of a mile? A sectional will shrink more than that by folding and unfolding it! If you’d have ironed the map, bet the 1/8th mile would miraculously reappear?
I remember Marcel Goudinat, I was working film in the 1975 Nationals at Minden. Marcel wasn’t in the contest, but handed me one roll of film and ask me to develop it for his badge flight................somehow his film got lost!............I told him to get his other roll of film (everybody used 2 cameras) Not Marcel........ If that little German had a gun, he’d of shot me!
RIP Nitpicker,
JJ
