Rules
1. This is an AMA sanctioned event, and proof of current AMA membership is required. AMA rules will apply except where designated in the pilot's meeting at the contest director's discretion. Maximum wingspan is 1.5 meters, and will be checked at pilot's meeting.

2. Pilot's are responsible for knowing which heats they are in, and for being ready to fly at the proper times.

3. All heats will be flown person-on-person (formerly man-on-man, but now politically correct!) with scores normalized for each flight group in each round.

4. All launches must be made within the field boundaries. Upon landing, the plane must come to rest with the nose within field boundaries. If the plane is caught by the pilot, the pilot must be standing within field boundaries in order for the flight time to count. Field boundaries will be clearly defined.

5. Time starts when the plane leaves the pilot's hand, and terminates when contact is made with a ground based object. Flight times at the end of a round terminate at the sound indicating the end of the round. Time will be truncated. No rounding.

6. Mid-air collisions will receive no re-flight consideration. Pilots should observe "Blue Sky" rules.

7. There is no restriction on the number of planes a pilot may fly during a round or contest, provided all planes are on the assigned frequency.

8. Time will be given to the score keepers in total seconds (for example: 245 seconds NOT 4 minutes 5 seconds)

9. Score card forms will be provided to all pilots. Your score for each heat must be turned in to the official scorekeepers at the conclusion of each heat. Scores will be tabulated at the conclusion of each round. Score sheets and score cards will be verified for all award finishers.
