What are D changes ?
What are the proposals for the rule changes in F1D?

Editor’s Comment
No one saying there are changes, there might be, it is just changing they are possible

Jnr P back to J

From:Michael Achterberg
F1p proposal.  Since it’s long history has proven it was a mistake and near complete failure, scrap it.  Replace it with F1j that the jrs totally loved.We have no jrs flying F1p and maybe 2 seniors. Dead event.   They created this to replace F1j for jrs and a change they didnt want.. The argument was F1j had excessive3 performance. Those models with new engines did have excessive performance for the max time.   Solution is to bring F1j back with 5 sec. motor run and F1c fuel 80/20. The jr flyers will fly this event and move into other power classes. It’s a simple event to fly and very much enjoyed by those who fly it.   Just say F1p was tried and failed to create interest to sustain it. The young flyers will come back if F1j is the event option. It is not just a failure in America but worldwide. Just my option.
