Description

This group is an annual Guillows cook-up fun challenge. It is open to anyone, world wide. The basic idea of the challenge is that all participants build the same Guillow's kit or a model from the same, designated Guillow's series, from the time the rules are posted until October 31 of the following year. The 2012 Guillows "G" challenge will be for any 900 series Guillows kit, using rubber power. The model must be built with the kit wood. The models are judged on appearance and flying time. An added category is the Orv Olm Speed Dash.

This group is where the participants in the "G" Challenge post the contest pictures of their models, progress pictures, building tips and the flight time results. Mark Tennant and several others on the staff at Guillow will judge the appearance points and there is a prize, supplied by Guillow for the overall winner in each category. The Challenge deadline is October 31 2012.

2012 "G" CHALLENGE RULES ARE IN MESSAGE #2629
