Norrköping airport arrivals and departures:
From Copenhagen To Norrköping 09:10 10:20 (Not Sundays) 10:30 11:40 15:20 16:20 (Saturdays 16:30) 19:35 20:35 (Not Saturdays) 22:10 23:05 From Norrköping To Copenhagen 07:10 08:05 08:00 08:55 (Not Sundays) 12:10 13:25 14:20 15:35 (Not Saturdays) 17:30 18:25 (Not Saturdays)
Fortunately, there is a practical solution to this. The entries received show that a large part of the F2B competitors arrive before July 22. Thus, the earliest arriving teams will get their practice allocated to the afternoon of July 22.
We strongly recommend the Boat Tour, which includes passing a few locks in the Göta Canal on the way to the Baltic Sea, but please order in advance.
We got a vacancy for the centre judge position. Therefore we will call in the reserve F2D judge Rob Olijve, Netherlands, to get four FAI F2D judges. Thomas Dürrfeld will serve as a centre judge, with the possibility to alternate with the others.
There was a claim that the organisers' insurance includes medical care. However, the insurance provided is just the third part insurance required by the Sporting Code. We apologise for the incorrect information.
July 16 - July 21 Practice is allowed at the practice areas as soon as they are set in order and as long as it does not interfere with site preparations. Preliminary registration must be made before any practice flying.

CLASS F2A, SPEED MODELS F2A Final Flights Rule 4.1.11 is changed to: 4.1.11 Number of Flights Each competitor is entitled to three official flights. At World and Continental Championships the ten highest placed competitors after these three flights are entitled to a final round of two additional flights to be flown on the last day of the contest. At the same time, rule 4.1.17, first paragraph, is changed to: 4.1.17 Classification The best speed attained during the three flights is used for the classification. At World and Continental Championships, the highest speed attained during the two final flights is used for the classification of the first ten competitors. The three first positions are subject to rechecking of the characteristics of the models used. And the last two paragraphs are changed to: To separate the competitors in the case of a tie, the second best flight will be used, and in case there still is a tie, the third best flight. At World and Continental Championships, in the case of a tie when the two final flights have been used, the result after the three qualifying flights is used. In addition a clarification of the team classification is necessary: A new rule 4.1.18 is inserted: 4.1.18 Team Classification The team classification is obtained by adding the best speeds of each team member in the three qualifying flights, disregarding any final flight results. Reason: The recent developments in F2A have been towards a greater similarity in equipment leading to a corresponding evenness in performance at the top level. Therefore it has become important to emphasise the individual skills in handling the equipment and the reliability in performance. It also means that it has become especially important that the contest is decided under as even external conditions as possible. At World and Continental Championships, the F2B and F2D classes normally decide the number of contest days to four, and there is time to allow this change. Together with this rule change the resolution of ties and the team classification have been clarified and made to be in accordance. Note: It is important that the finals starting order is arranged so that national teams with more than one participant get a reasonable time for preparing.We ask all to discuss this proposal and to form an opinion that can be communicated to the C/L Subcommittee. This is a suitable topic for the F2A seminar on July 28.
