Default New Class for US Nationals

To put the handicaps into perspective, the IGC list is generally based on the German handicap list which includes pretty much anything flying incl. ETA, EB-29 etc. If the rest of the ASW 20s and the Ventus 1 were to be included in the IGC list they would likely get a 1.10, the LS-6 a 1.11, not an earth shattering extension of the current IGC handicap top of 1.09... Latest generation 15m ships would likely be in the 1.14 range...
