I will end with this - how many times in the history of the Tornado class did the class association have a split faction form their own "owner's" class association? Because it's already happening in the N17 class right now. Wake up.
I seem to remember quite the kerfluffle when the T went through the whole "to spin or not to spin" and "we love/hate carbon masts" phases. I could be wrong...
To say that the T was absent of drama is looking at it with pretty rose-colored glasses. Add to that the entire reason why we're in this current Olympic situation is because of the Tornado class' ineptness at liasoning/politicking with ISAF if I recall correctly.
