Hi,
No disrespect was meant towards our American cousins by possibly calling these mass Rev gatherings here in the UK, “iQuad-UK”, in fact the opposite was our intention. If used it would only be in tribute and if eventually used would only be solely for Mass Rev flys here in the UK, there would not be a competing team using this name.
If there is going to be a problem with this please let me know, my original post was made on the MKF club forum and was really only directed at MKF members.
If you read this post it clearly states that we had only dubbed it "iQuad-UK" no final decision had been made as to the eventual name. My original post was put on this forum without my knowledge so I feel some of you may have jumped the gun over this and have blown it out of proportion.
It would be nice if eventually iQuad could join us for one huge Rev Fly as a sign of the special relationship there is between the UK and the USA.
The whole thing is in the early stages over here anyway and there is no reason why it couldn't be called something else if there is going to be arguments about a name. All we are trying to do is promote Quad line kite flying; we could have called it Quad-UK or something else similar. I really feel that it would be unreasonable for any one group to make the use of the term "Quad" exclusive anyway.
