Default Club Class Eligibility List

In other parts of the World, LS-3s don't often race AS-G29s. The
LS-3 can fly competitively in Club Class, and the AS-G29 is restricted
to only flying 15M (with the optional tips), 18M, Open, or handicapped
in Sports Class.
At the recent Club and Sports Class Nationals in Australia, the Club
Class was Discus (1), AS-W20 and lesser performance, as per the linked
handicap list. Sports Class was anything better.
It was good fun to see a 201 Libelle fly past an AS-G29 just before
touchdown. Of course, the 29 driver won the "Sammy The Snail" award
the next morning!

I believe this is why Sean Franke won the spot on the team by
finishing 3rd at Elmira in a LS3-a behind a ASW-27 and ASG-29.
