    The new STU/STL size limit is 48.25 width by 8.50 chord; all of APR's wings appear to be 8.75 max chord.

    I see that and it is the SCCA spec (48") wing too....???

    I would get together with SCCA and get it changed. I wouldn't be surprised if they (SCCA) had no clue......

    On edit: RESOLVED, see below.



    Someone else (or numerous someone elses) want to submit that? I've been hammering them with STx rules changes/requests and I don't want to overstep my limited welcome...just request that the original rule be reinstated.

    If nothing else, refer to that link and ask them to consider allowing that specific wing, with a max chord of 9 to accommodate the Gurney flap if desired.

    The wing issue was one of the requests I sent back in August when they proposed the entire ball of wax changes in ST. So it's been sitting on their plate for months.

    Well, here I was all ready to tell them that my 8.5" molds are complete and that I'd be happy to make them wings, but...is the CRB really going to change the rule back to 10.75"?
