In this case, competitor is obliged to carry his airplane to the specified location with empty fuel tank and with all equipment needed for the following task. Inspection must be finished at least 15 minutes before relevant planning time. Organizer may decide, that airplane will be under oversight of marshals and pilot mustn’t make anything with his airplane up to start of planning time excluded refuelling by approved amount of fuel, pre-flight check, and warm up of the engine under marshals supervision.

h3. Reason
Reason -- changing of the starting list and starting order makes risks and disadvantages for pilots, which must overfly slower aircrafts at the track. This may make collision situations in the track and gates and can make bad concentration of pilots for the task. This is a big disadvantage for competitors. Any checks and inspections shouldn’t generate disadvantages or additional loading for any competitor.
