While COVID-related national restrictions are being lifted, British Aerobatics wishes to maintain a good safety record in the air and on the ground, and as such remain cautious to limit the potential spreading of COVID at our contests and ensure that all members and potential visitors can enjoy this season as safely as possible. Please read our current guidelines here

Pilots competing in the Tiger Trophy must enter at the highest level at which they have previously competed at a British Aerobatics or International event. The intent of this requirement is that pilots should fly at the level which challenges the full extent of their aerobatic capability and hence puts all pilots on an equal footing.

In some circumstances, pilots may have been inactive at competitions for a number of years, or may have chosen to compete at a lower level of competition. In such instances, the Head of Contest Organisation may exempt a pilot from this requirement.

An exemption will not be given if the pilot has competed at a higher level within the previous five years. Pilots who wish to obtain an exemption to this rule and fly at a lower level, must contact the Head of Contest Organisation for approval before the entry deadline for the contest.

Pilots are invited to form teams of 3 - 6 pilots for the 'Surprise Unknowns'. The Team Tankard will be awarded to the team with the 3 highest ranked pilots. Participation as part of a team in the Surprise Unknown is not compulsory. Individual medals will also be awarded.

Unknown sequences may be replaced with un-flown trophies from earlier events.
