For all competitors, the 2015-16 rule book cycle is heading into the voting stages. You might want to check out the proposals page on the website at: www.modelaircraft.org/events/ruleproposals.aspx to see if your particular favorite has pertinent proposals pending. The system is set up so that you have representation on the board, and it’s your chance to have input into the changes that are made to the rule book. Read through the proposals and comment to your district rep on how you’d like to see these voted on. That’s your way of making a difference.

“winds of March,” the “rains in April,” and
the “flowers of May”; I think that’s how the
song goes anyway.
