T.O.S.S. Aerobatics League All SAMAA registered slope fliers welcome to join us. NEXT EVENT -28 August 2010 We have re-structured the league format to make it achievable by all levels of competitor with any type of glider. The new format is a single class with the THREE “Mandatory Manoeuvres” and an additional SEVEN manoeuvres selected from the “Optional List” with a higher K-factor manoeuvre scoring more points than a low K-factor manoeuvre. (You will be required to select your Optional manoeuvres on the score sheet before the start of the event) (K-factor explained) K-factor (K) - The scores awarded by the judges for each manoeuvre is multiplied by the K-factor allocated to the manoeuvre. Example – an 8 out of 10 score for a “Cuban Eight” would score you 80 point whereas an 8 out of 10 score for a “Rolling Eight” would score you a 120 points CHECK THIS LINK FOR DISCRIPTIONS AND DIAGRAMS OF THE MANOEUVRES - Discriptions and Diagrams of manoeuvres (Extract from the MGA Document MGA-rules-10-aerobat.pdF) Mandatory Manoeuvres | a | Two rolls | K = 8 | b | Double Immelman turn | K = 9 | | c | Cuban eight | K = 10 | | | |
