Aces High Short Landing Competition
« on: August 26, 2015, 07:32:59 PM »
Pilot who can land the selected aircraft in the least amount of runway with out breaking competition rules or conditions will win a one month AH subscription donated by The 509th Squadron. This will be an open private event hosted by the 509th Ramblin' Raiders​. I could possibly use one or two guys as Refs, if this is possible Message me. Depending on the projected numbers we will use training arena Or custom if able (As I dont have acces to SEA) All rules will be posted in the MOTD. It will take place this Saturday at 7 West Coast Time.  :salute I will answer any questions I can!

The practice will start at 6pm west coast. Basic rules are. No damage to aircraft. Gear down. No bounce. And you have 3 trys. Your best try counts.

how is the distance going to be measured?

and is there a full water tight write up of the rules somewhere? so that Bear76's lawyers can go through them before the event starts, so that we can avoid any dramas?   :devil

Here are the rules so far. Providing this is not canceled.

 You will be using the AvA palau Map.
Everyone will be on the bishop flying out of A1.
That runway has only one direction to fly out and is at sea level with water on both sides of the runway!

RULES:

1:All landings are to be gear down landings.
Tires must touch the runway first.

2: Best ONE out of three tries counts.

3: You have two minutes From takeoff
to make first landing.

4: Grounds for disqualification:
A: Bounce on landing.
B:Damage to plane.
C:Wheels touching grass at any time.

5: You need to have 100% fuel load each time.

6: The decision of the main judge is final.

Air smoke is turned on and Kill shooter is off.
