Timings

All events and timings prior to the General Briefing are preliminary and may be changed on short notice.

In the General Briefing, the Competition Director will publish the official times for the European Championship. This table on the web will then be adjusted.

Please note:
- Official times are only those communicated in official briefings.
- No check-In -> No personal briefing -> No practice flight
- If you fly without check-in, the pilot will have to accept the legal consequences applied by the aviation authorities.
- Nominated pilots are responsible for all pilots in their team.

Official sunrise/sunset-times for the European Championship are:

sunrise = 0600 local
