The Competition will be judged by a panel of judges under the Presidency of His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh K.G, K.T. The results will be announced as soon as possible at an awards Presentation and Reception but it is unlikely that this will take place before the end of October.
Interpretation of RulesAny queries regarding the rules should be addressed, in writing, to the Co-ordinator.
Breach of Regulations or other lawIn view of Rule 3 (see Rules), and of the fact that neither The Tiger Club nor any other Sponsor exercises any supervision or control over Competitors, the following provisions shall apply:
a) It is the responsibility of each Competitor to see that he/she complies at all times with all relevant legislation currently in force regarding the airworthiness of Flying Machines, licensing of crew, operation of Flying Machines and so on.
b) Neither The Tiger Club, nor any Sponsor, nor any other organiser or official connected with the event accepts any responsibility to the Competitor or to anyone else for any of the following:
i) the financial or other arrangements of Competitors and intending Competitors.
ii) any breach of regulations or general law, or any negligent, reckless or other act or default whatsoever committed or omitted (as the case may be) by a Competitor.
iii) subject to section 2 of the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977, any death or loss, damage or injury of whatever nature caused to or by a Competitor.
iv) the arrangement of any insurance in relation to the Competition. Each Competitor is solely responsible for making whatever insurance arrangements are necessary. In the event of dispute, English law will prevail.
The Judges reserve the right to penalise any Competitor who, in their opinion, has taken unnecessary risks or demonstrated bad or doubtful airmanship. Competitors may be required to give a written or verbal explanation of any of the circumstances connected with the flight. Particularly blatant cases of bad airmanship may result in exclusion.
The decision of the Judges is final. It is pointed out that the Competitors agree to be bound by this, and all other regulations issued for the Competition, upon signing the Entry Form The Judges reserve the right to accept an entry without having to assign a reason.
