The B division glider event for next year is Elastic Launch Glider. Sounds of Music requires you to build an instrument and take a test on the physics of sound. Unsure when it will return for B division.

Sounds of Music will return in 2021, replacing Density Lab.

Not sure of/if the glider event. Sounds will probably never be division B, because it is a very difficult event that deals with pitches and sound. I don't see sounds becoming a B event.

Chalker posted about it being an event in 2021 a long time ago, not sure when.

Repeats of this year for B and C, probably with measurements changed a little.

Or are you asking about 2021?

Wasn't it a B division event 2013-2014?

Are they taking helicopters out of the rotation because since they changed it last year events now "follow competitors" like some people will have 4 years of wright stuff next year in a row.
