- Rotorcraft: Noon, Thursday
- Vintage, Homebuilt, and Ultralight/Light-Sport Aircraft: Noon,

If you are expecting to have your aircraft judged, please plan on
giving the judges at least one full day in advance of the close of
judging for the volunteer judges to view your aircraft. For example,
if judging in your area ends at noon on Friday, having your aircraft
on the airport and registered no later than Wednesday
evening or first thing Thursday morning will give the judges
adequate time to review it.
