Straw Poll vote:.....
In a failed attempt to debate this topic I would like to do a simple vote on this subject matter:
<i><b>Would the inception of a Hershey Bar Wing (HBW), ie, No tapers in any dimension of span/chords/thickness rule as a provisional class have any effect of slowing things down? Yes/No, No debate neccesary... </b></i>
If there are those that would choose to debate the subject matter please weigh in on the No tapers thread and lets keep this one a clean matter of record.........

Also gut response - limited effect (if any). Not worth alienating the guys with LTWs. (I have some of both - SPADS and Bat-tricks). FWIW a SPAD dog-fighter with a 48x9 wing was just as fast as the LTWs at our Lim B demo at the Detroit field last weekend.

Mike, I don`t think a spec wing alone would achieve enough speed reduction. I think that RPM`s and prop pitch are the keys to slower speeds. A spec wing would outlaw so many designs that I think the results would be negitive overall. I don`t have a problem with span and cord limits as long as they are broad enough to include most current designs. I think Doc`s suggestions in the other thread sound good.
