calling complete for new takeoff

Good question Steve!  I believe you do have to call it, but when exactly
does the takeoff finish, and the landing begin?

According to 14.6:

"14.6. In all classes, the contestant or helper must call out the initiation
and completion of the takeoff and landing maneuvers and all maneuvering area
entries and exits."

So I guess after completing the downwind turn (last maneuver described in
takeoff sequence) you call "takeoff complete", then a moment later "entering
the box"?

Same with landing..."exiting the box...begin landing"...start the upwind
turn?

Should we also assume that failure to call box exit prior to landing would
result in a 0 landing?

"Failure to correctly call an entry or exit of the maneuvering area should
result in a major downgrade of the maneuver immediately following the
failure to call."

And since it's 0 or 10....

 So I take it that under the new rules calling complete for takeoff isn't
needed now because it would have to be done on the trim pass, same for
starting the landing because of the procedure that has to be done now on
both?
