p10 - Width of decks in airfield runways

Sec. 10

4.31.5
Take-offs and landings by Microlights in all tasks shall be completed within a 100 x 25 m landing deck, or for the task “Short take off and landing over obstacle”, within a deck 150 m x 25 m. Aircraft not capable of taxiing unaided from the deck after landing score zero. Landing provisions in the case of an emergency shall be specified at briefing. Failure to comply with instructions regarding emergency shall incur a penalty.

The width of the deck may be decreased to be adjusted to the width of the existing runway.

2.1.2 TAKE-OFF AND LANDING
Unless it is stated differently in the task description all competition take-offs and landings must be completed within a deck 100m x 25m the marked deck. The penalty for failing to take off or land entirely within the deck will be 20% - 50% of pilot score, as briefed.

2.C4 POWERED PRECISION LANDING - TIMED

This task simulates a landing on an aircraft carrier deck, the deck being a deck 100 metres long and 25 metres
wide. The width of the deck may be decreased to be adjusted to the width of the existing runway (S10 4.31.5).

2.C8 DECK TAKEOFF
Objectives
The objective is for the aircraft to take off from a deck 100 metres long by 25 metres wide.
Summary
This task proves the short takeoff capability that is fundamental to the performance characteristics of a Microlight by demonstrating that the aircraft can take off in 100 metres in still air at sea level. Where local conditions, such as airfield altitude or slope of the runway, will make a significant difference to takeoff runs the length of the deck may be adjusted accordingly. The width of the deck may be decreased to be adjusted to the width of the existing runway (S10 4.31.5).

2.C9 DECK LANDING
Objectives
The objective is for the aircraft to land in a deck 100 metres long by 25 metres wide.

This task proves the short landing capability that is fundamental to the performance characteristics of a Microlight by demonstrating that the aircraft can land in 100 metres in still air at sea level. Where local conditions, such as airfield altitude or slope of the runway, will make a significant difference to landing runs the length of the deck may be adjusted accordingly.
