The SSA Rules Committee would like to gauge pilot interest in attending a potential 20 Meter Multiseat Class National Competition if it were hosted at Mifflin in 2018. The Rules Committee has determined that we need to have at least 12 confirmed entries if we are to proceed. Furthermore, time is of the essence if we are to have a chance of making this contest happen. If you would be definitely interested in attending this new National Contest, please respond to this thread or email me at as soon as possible.

Would this a handicapped contest?

This class is planned to have limited handicapping with a handicap range from Arcus to abut .05 greater numerical handicap so as to try to draw Duo's, some DG 2 seaters, and possibly others.

Thanks, I am interested - tentatively.

I'd be honored to bring "QQ". I'm pretty sure I'll come in DFL among all the pilots who are responding, but ... what the heck. Seems like a fun time.

That glider knows the Mifflin task area really well...Come on up!

Folks,

Organizers need as much interest as you can give to attending the first ever 20 meter nationals ; potentially to be held at Mifflin in May 2018.

If you have any thought of attending with a two seater let it be known to Janine !! She is getting alot of interest but needs to know how many ships may play in Mifflin.

This is a very very very fun class!!

Would definitely be interested in attending with our DG1000.

Bif,

Heh I would reach out to Matti at USAFA on this also. I could see where the Academy might like a contest like this in some cases. I will mention it to him also.

Hope all is well! Miss seeing all you guys at Comps since I retired from USAFA. Also, I could imagine some Stemme owners could find such a contest interesting too.

The academy brought three Duos to Hobbs, i be theyd take them to mifflin!

Would 23 meters be accepted at a 20 meter contest?

Unfortunately, with a 200 hour inspection/overhaul requirement on the
propeller, I have to pick and choose where and when I can travel with
the ship. Maybe a trailer some day...
