Practice Short-Field Landing Slots
All practice landing heats at Quad Cities airport will be scheduled by the Chief Judge on a day-to-day basis. A sign-up form, open until 5pm for the next day’s slots, will be used to build a heat sheet based on the submitted preferences. Slots will be equally divided among teams who have indicated their practice preferences. After all schools are given an equal number of slots, any remaining slots will be given to the schools which have arrived to KMLI most recently. Heat position assignments will be random for positions 2-4, and position 1 will be evenly distributed among the schools. The Chief Judge may retain any number of slots to be distributed at their discretion.
