(ROL Newswire) --  Tom Rouse, Tripoli Competition Director, is pleased
to announce that the "Large Rockets" category has undergone revision to
address the lack of classes for L, M N & O motors. Tom states, "The
revisions also change the existing class structures of diameters and
lengths for the G through K classes. "

Tom credits long-time Tripoli member Mark Clark for his exhaustive study
which made these revisions possible. Both are confident that the changes
will make the competition more appealing to Tripoli members , especially
for members where FAA waivers are limited and flyers want to be able to
compete in things other than maximum altitudes. The reasoning behind
these changes can be found at http://www.ahpra.org/motorsvolume.htm .
