The Event

Realism Competition Flying

•       Each pilot can fly up to 3 rounds each day

•       Winners of each round may fly in the ensuing rounds but scores will not be tallied (dependent on numbers winners of early rounds maybe asked not to fly in later rounds)

•       The winner of each of the 3 rounds will fly off to determine the daily winner

•       The winner of day 1 may fly in day 2 rounds but the score will not be tallied.

•       Each days winner will fly off for the model of the meet

•       Pilots should ensure judges are made aware of the nuances of "unusual"

maneuvers

•       Realism assessment will be taken from the moment the aircraft is released in the taxiway to the time it shuts down adjacent to the inward barriers.

•       The responsibility to fly each round is yours;

•       You will not be called

•       Simply line up in the ready lines and proceed to the starting area when a vacancy exists

•       The hourly competitive period(s) starting and finishing will be announced.

•       They may be extended or reduced in sympathy with the entrant numbers

Static Judging

•       Scratch and builds from kits require F4c type documentation ie; 3 views and colour photographs or chips

•       Modified ARF's require colour photographs of the modeled aircraft. If outline changes are claimed then F4c documentation as above.

•       Models judged from 4m - cockpits are not judged.
