* In other parts of the World, LS-3s don't often race AS-G29s. The
LS-3 can fly competitively in Club Class, and the AS-G29 is restricted
to only flying 15M (with the optional tips), 18M, Open, or handicapped
in Sports Class.
* At the recent Club and Sports Class Nationals in Australia, the Club
Class was Discus (1), AS-W20 and lesser performance, as per the linked
handicap list. Sports Class was anything better.
* It was good fun to see a 201 Libelle fly past an AS-G29 just before
touchdown. Of course, the 29 driver won the "Sammy The Snail" award
the next morning!

I believe this is why Sean Franke won the spot on the team by
finishing 3rd at Elmira in a LS3-a behind a ASW-27 and ASG-29.

It also applies to regional contests which have an actual club class
(such as region 5 south at Cordele). Only planes on the club class
list
can race in that class.
