What’s up with ArkanSTOL 2023
New Airside Team / New Scoring
For 2023 we’ve re-organized our all volunteer team structure to streamline the competing structure, rules and scoring. They’ve been meeting regularly to further enhance the professional structure and atmosphere for competition that we have strived for since day one.
The big news is that with past competitor input we’ve settled in on a simplified scoring structure for 2023 that has a simple formula: Time + Distance + Penalties = Score - lowest score wins.
We all felt this was the best way to keep true to one of ArkanSTOL’s original goals of providing an event that doesn’t favor any one particular characteristic of a STOL aircraft.
Check out the new rules here.
