<DIV>It is interesting to note that the other person in this incident did not think he was in a midair, but even though he was told several times that he WAS in a midair, he finished flying his round anyway (in violation of the rule??). If the judges knew he was involved in a midair, should they stop judging the round, according to the rule?</DIV>

<DIV>Wow, I didn't see this rule either. I've never actually seen it put to use. Every time I've witnessed a midair, whoever was involved either landed immediately or picked up the pieces and flew another plane in the next round. I've never seen someone try to resume a flight from the point of a midair.</DIV>
