Judging<\/h2>

You can choose to judge or fly or do both. \n
Judging will help you enhance your aerobatic flying by improving your insight into what is required in terms of accuracy, geometry, symmetry and speed.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/div> <\/div>

Judges at an F3A World Championships pictured above.<\/span>
\n\n\n
At our UK comps there will normally be two judges, or more for the bigger competitions.<\/span><\/span><\/p>

A good way to start judging is to \u201cshadow\u201d judge at a comp, where you can give it a try, without your scores affecting the result.<\/p><\/div> <\/div>

The Notaumatic, pictured above, is a dedicated device used to record the score for each manoeuvre, automatically upload them and calculate the final scores.
\n
\nAt a competition, pilots can view their and other pilots scores, in real time on their mobile.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>
