finally see the light. I've been too focused on the line in the PPP which is
incomplete. Thinking that the word "stop" was the crucial point
it now becomes clear that the emphasis is really meant to be focused on the

that the speed be below flying speed (subjective) within 10 meters. Thirty
years ago flying speed probably meant something but most modern pattern
airplanes are capable of flying speed without ground speed if the nose is high
enough, unless there is a documented distinction between flying and hovering.
Is landing with power greater than idle allowed? How much power can be used to
'drag it in nose high? Most can roll the tail wheel on before the mains, which
commits the airplane to "Below Flying Speed", at least without a bump
/ bounce.<o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p>

color:black'>In the landing descriptor it states, " there is no down grade
if the model rolls to a stop within 15 meters". I think the
crucial word is STOP ! What does this mean to proper
execution? How many times have you seen a plane touch down
perfectly within one meter of the center line and then proceed to roll
perfectly straight down the center of the runway without a single bounce for a
distance of 150 feet? A little hot maybe, but to most observers, a
beautiful landing. In light of the "Stop within 15 meters"
stipulation, it would appear that this becomes a downgradeable offence. Sounds,
to me, like maybe it's the pilot's responsibility to also control the approach
airspeed so that touchdown occurs just above stall speed controlling the
rollout distance, but maybe somebody will correct me on this. I think this
would also cover stuff like flipovers after the 15 meter rollout.</span></font><font

requirements and then encounters an obstacle, whether that be a hole or a
hummock or whatever, I would deem the execution faultless and rule "beyond

result of either the plane being outside the landing zone or equipment
malfunction ( stuck wheel e.t.c.) and would require discretionary judgement on
the part of the scorer.</span></font><font color=black><span style='color:black;
