Can a team shoot for only 1 prize and not perform all the flight tests for other prizes?
No. To win any prize, each team must perform all of the required flight attempts in the entire competition and fulfill the requirements given in the Prize Matrix in the rules. Q: What must I obtain from the FAA in order to participate in the GAT Challenge. A: Your team pilot must qualify and have a current valid pilot’s license, BFR and medical. Your team vehicle must have an United States FAA Airworthiness Certificate that allows day VFR flight anywhere in the continuous 48 states, a current annual inspection, including valid and current transponder and pitot/static system inspection/approval, and a sign-off approval for any modifications that have been made for the flight competition. An additional FAA approval for flight with the wing cuffs and ÜberBarograph system will be necessary and can be obtained at the GAT Challenge on registration day.
