"Gary,
I, for one, would be in favor of two different competition streams: One for fixed wing, and one for rotary wing aircraft. With a few exceptions, I don't think there are many competitions that would be very fair for both kinds of aircraft.…"

"Gary / Chris,
Thanks for the update -- I'll probably just review previous T3 rounds if I'm looking for a challenge :). Unfortunately, I don't have a Quad (and I'm not sure I want one yet) so if the next round is geared for Quads specifically, I'll…"

"Gary,
I'd love to post my amazing 20 second time, but unfortunately, the weather here needs to clear up a bit first :(. Either that, or I need to start working on putting my UDB into a flying boat that won't mind the epic downpours which remind…"
