Buy a 1-26 and go after the 1-26 records. Those are national records too and they are quite breakable . This way you don't have to buy a pressure suit or a $500,000 glider...

I guess I'm just curious how it got to this point. The rules for state records say you need to take off within the state (you can land across state lines) you are claiming the record in. Seems like it used to be a requirement that for a US record you should take off within the country where the record was claimed. Seems like a reasonable distinction to have US and OUS categories.
