Competition maps
In cooperation with the DSV (Deutscher Segelflugverband) we are working on an ICAO map, certified by the DFS (Deutsche Flugsicherung) for the complete competition area. The consecutively numbered turning points will be printed on the map and are coordinated with Lilienthal-Glide 24, Streckenflugwoche Riesa-Canitz 2024, 13. LAIRwoche Kamenz, Spreewaldpokal, Klix 2024.
The map will contain the area from 50.-54. latitude north and 10.-18. longitude east (see the picture below). The map will meet all the requirements for the mandatory aviation chart you need to take on board. It covers the standard map sheet of Berlin completely and in part the sheets of Nürnberg and Rostock, as well as parts of Poland and the Czech Republic.
It’s possible to purchase the map during the registration in Klix. It will be one unfolded piece (98cm x 138cm). Therefore, it is neither necessary anymore to glue multiple maps together nor search for the right map in the cockpit.
Map folding:
Due to the size of the map it is necessary to fold it before storing it in the cockpit. We suggest you use the „city plan“ folding method. It allows the possibility to reduce the map to a size of about a standard A4-sheet while keeping the possibility of browsing two-dimensionally. This makes an inconvenient refolding during flight obsolete. The following two links present an instruction for folding the map as well as a video of the end result.
Registration
All classes are overbooked, Registration is closed.
You may want to use a translator (e.g. built-in feature in Google Chrome) to complete the registration process in your native language.
Attention: Last year’s accounts and registration data are not valid anymore!
The registration process consists of two steps:
1. Registration
During registration you create your profile and enter the following data:
– Family name, first name, e-mail address – Class, in which you want to compete
With successful registration you are marked in the stated class. Now you are ready to be part of the competition!
Attention: Registrations that are made before the official activation of the process are not valid. The e-mail address is your user name that you can use to log in again later. Consequently, each e-mail address can only be used for one registration
2. Completion of your data – finalize registration
After the successful registration you will receive an e-mail to the stated address within an hour. It contains the URL link and your personal password for the completion of your personal data and information about your glider. The completion of your data needs to be done within 3 days, it finalizes your registration. This is the necessary requirement, so your registration is considered for a place in the competition.
If you want to change your class, you need to redo the whole registration process for the new class. Incomplete and thus not finished registrations will not be considered for a placement in the competition!
Moreover, you can now add further pilots that will use the same glider. The declaration of their e-mail address is necessary too, the address will be their login name. They will receive their personal login to enter their data for the registration.
What happens next?
After transferring the entry fee (until December 9, 2023) and the confirmation of participation (until December 31, 2023) the confirmed Pilots can: Update personal data and information about the glider, add further pilots, fill out the SEPA direct debit mandate and print it, print the prefilled check form.
Personal data and glider information that will be asked for during the registration process will be used and processed by the host (aeroteamKLIX Segelflugclub e.V.) for the administration of participants, planning of the event (organization, accommodation and accounting) and the execution of it (Telephone numbers for emergency cases) (section 6 GDPR subparagraph 1b). With sending the form you are giving your consent for the processing (section 6 GDPR subparagraph 1b). Your data will not be given to third parties.
