All parameters will be in accord with the minimum as specified in the Competition Manual, and confirmed at the First Briefing on 20th October 2016. Minimum GAP parameters are 10k min distance, 80k nominal distance, 90min nominal time, 20% in goal. Please ensure your attendance as this will be the time when all rules for scoring will be discussed. FTV will not be used. Pilots will be encouraged to download track logs direct onto HighCloud web site after completion of each task. This will streamline scoring, enable track logs to be uploaded enroute from tasks, and eliminate queues at HQ for downloads. Open window (Alternate
Launch) and determined launch order combination. The “Allocated Time” as specified by Section 3.134 “Launch Validity – Launch Open Time” will be one minute per pilot when determining the validity of the total launch window open time. This year we will use, as a guide, the rules specified in the competition manual for combination launch windows (Section 3.1311 “Determined Launch Order Rules - With Push – Hang Gliding”) as we have done in previous years. The normal pushing rule applies. Pilots in the take off line can push during open window (Alternate Launch) or any other pilot can push during determined launch order (Main Launch). As in previous years the Open Window time is not specifically ‘open’ to launch at any time, due to launch site compatibility issues. You will be required to nominate PRIOR to proceeding to the hill if you wish to take up a launch position in the Open Window (Alternate Launch). The order of launch will be determined at the HQ Briefing by a
random draw BEFORE you go to the hill. Source: http://www.doksinet Approximately 1/3 of the total pilot positions will be available. These positions are not open to pilots in the top 20 places in the competition. The meet director may choose to allow a period of open window launches, before implementing a determined launch order at a nominated time. The launch open window time shall start when the ordered alternate launch is initially opened. During the period that the window is open a pilot who nominated to launch during this time will be directed when their launch time is approaching. If the pilot chooses not to launch they must immediately leave the launch area. If they still wish to launch in the alternate launch they must rejoin the take off line behind all other pilots who wish to launch in turn in the ALTERNATE launch. They forfeit their nominated launch order position for ALTERNATE LAUNCH if they choose not to launch. If you nominate for alternate launch you must set-up in
the area and order advised by the Launch Director. Pilots in the Alternate launch take off line when the determined order Main launch comes into effect must revert to their nominated launch order position for the main launch. The PUSHING rule applies for main launch and each Pilot is given 1 minute to launch or must vacate the launch area and go to the end of the Main launch line. Main Launch order is taken from the Unofficial scores list, except the first day, which is decided by national standings. International pilots with world rankings will have be given a nominal national standing. If you do not have any national standing then the first day’s launch order will be determined from the time you paid your entry fee. Protest A protest fee of $50.00 applies to all formal protests lodged and is refundable if the protest is upheld. Height Restrictions Height restrictions will be announced on each day. Pilots should familiarize themselves with the updated VTC chart showing all
controlled airspace and areas subject to release, on display at HQ and Launch. This year penalties will be imposed upon those exceeding height limits as per the Competitions Manual Edition 17.0 Pilots should familiarize themselves with the prohibited landing areas in the region from the maps providedat registration. It is important for the preservation of our sites that local landowners’ requests are honoured. Safety Issues It is suggested that drivers keep an accurate running log of times and known locations of pilots so that they can focus on these areas if pilots lose Source: http://www.doksinet communications or get into trouble when landing out.

When reading, most of us just let a story wash over us, getting lost in the world of the book rather than paying attention to the individual elements of the plot or writing. However, in English class, our teachers ask us to look at the mechanics of the writing.
