Location

The hall we will use is the Jan Massinkhal, located in the outskirts of Nijmegen. The characteristics of the hall are a 2400 square meters floor, height is nearly 8 meters (Cat. 1 hall). The ceiling is fairly smooth and unobstructed.
Adress of the hall is Jan Massinkhal, Nieuwe Dukenburgseweg 5, Nijmegen.

Contest

We will be flying contests in several classes. The classes are:
- duration: F1D, F1M, F1M small (Juniors), F1L, F1N (Indoor Glider), Sainte,
- scale: Pistachio, F4F (Peanut), F4D (Open scale rubber) and F4E (Open scale electric/CO2).

We will also do a Pylon race. The models used for this should more or less resemble a real plane. Eligible for this are scale models, Bostonians and similar models.

In addition to this there will be an award for highest placed scale model in it’s class for a model of Dutch design or built by Dutch factories. Eligible for this are planes built by Fokker, Koolhoven, Pander etc. Note that this also includes planes that Dutch designers did for factories outside the Netherlands too; examples being Koolhoven in the UK for B.A.T., Fokker during WW 1 in Germany.

Flying other types of models is of course allowed as well; in the definitive schedule there will be time allocated for this. There will also be plenty of time available for trimming and fun flying.

Judging

The judging rules used for the scale classes will be similar to the ones used in the Interscale and British Indoor Scale Nationals competitions, the duration rules will follow the standard FAI rules.
The F1M small class is used in the Netherlands for juniors. Rules are similar to the standard F1M rules, with the only deviation being a limit of the wing chord to 160 mm. Please note that all duration classes will be flown on normal weight, full motors.

Proxy flying

It is possible in the Peanut and Pistachio class to send in your model for proxy flying. The entry fee for this is €10,- Please contact us for more details about this and how to arrange it. Naturally we will use only experienced flyers to fly your models. Alternatively you can agree with someone in advance to fly your models.

Prizes

In all classes the best three flyers will receive a prize. Also in Peanut and F4D the best junior will also receive a prize.
