The Civil Aviation Division addresses common, noncompetitive domestic and international civil aviation issues. Strategic direction for the division is provided by the CEO-level Civil Aviation Leadership Council (CALC). The CALC sets the direction for the Civil Aviation Council (CAC) on the Association's top civil aviation policy priorities. The CAC then manages and interacts with the tactical activities of the Association's committees and working groups on issues such as aircraft noise and emissions, chemical policy, certification, rulemaking and safety, air traffic systems, unmanned aircraft systems and NextGen national air transportation system modernization. The CAC also coordinates with other aviation associations and safety agencies around the world. In addition, the Civil Aviation Division helps staff the Association's participation in the International Coordinating Council of Aviation Industry Associations, which provides input on global aviation issues to the International Civil Aviation Organization. Civil Aviation's activities are organized around three primary objectives: (1) promote global competitive trade; (2) support transformation aviation initiatives and technology; and (3) advance policies and research that enable sustainable growth of the industry. The Space Systems Division is responsible for supporting the Association's Space Council and its primary committees, the National Security Space, Civil Space, and Commercial Space Committees. Space Systems works to develop industry positions on domestic and international space uses and uses these to educate Congress, federal agencies, and other space stakeholders on the importance of space activities to our national security, economy and international leadership. It also facilitates dialogue between the space industry and government decision makers to address critical issues, such as the health and competitiveness of the space industrial base, the state of space systems acquisitions, and the integral role space-based assets bear on the nation's infrastructure and national security.

AT THE FLY-OFFS, 20 TEAMS WILL BE INVITED TO MAKE A SECOND FLIGHT AT THE LAST FLIGHT ROUND OF THE DAY, BASED ON THE RESULTS OF THEIR FIRST FLIGHTS. CASH PRIZES, WHICH ARE AWARDED TO THE TOP TEN PLACES, WILL BE AWARDED ONLY TO THOSE TEAMS THAT MAKE A SECOND FULLY QUALIFIED FLIGHT. IN THIS FINAL ROUND, ROCKETS WHICH HAVE ISSUES WHICH WOULD OTHERWISE RATE A REPLACEMENT FLIGHT UNDER TEAM AMERICA ROCKETRY CONTEST RULES #7 OR #9 WILL NOT RECEIVE A REPLACEMENT FLIGHT. THE TOP TEN FINAL PLACES WILL BE RANKED ON THE BASIS OF THE SUM OF THE SCORES FROM THE TWO QUALIFIED FLIGHTS MADE AT THE FLY-OFFS. PLACES ELEVEN UP TO ONE HUNDRED WILL BE AWARDED TO THE REMAINING TEAMS BASED ON THE SCORES FROM THEIR FIRST FLIGHT. TIES WILL RESULT IN POOLING AND EVEN SPLITTING OF THE PRIZES FOR THE AFFECTED PLACE(S) -- FOR EXAMPLE, A TWO-WAY TIE FOR 2ND PLACE WOULD RESULT IN A MERGER AND EVEN DIVISION OF THE PRIZES FOR 2ND AND 3RD PLACES. AEROSPACE INDUSTRIES ASSOCIATION RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MAKE ALL LAST AND FINAL CONTEST DETERMINATIONS. DURATION SCORING SCORES SHALL BE BASED ON TOTAL FLIGHT DURECTION OF THE PORTION OF THE ROCKET CONTAINING THE EGG, MEASURED FROM FIST MOTION AT LIFTOFF FROM THE LAUNCH PAD UNTIL THE MOMENT OF LANDING OR UNTIL THE ROCKET CAN NO LONGER BE SEEN DUE TO DISTANCE OR TO AN OBSTACLE. TIMES MUST BE MEASURED INDEPENDENTLY BY TWO PEOPLE NOT ON THE TEAM, ONE OF WHOM IS THE OFFICIAL NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF ROCKETRY-MEMBER ADULT OBSERVER, USING SEPARATE ELECTRONIC STOPWATCHES ACCURATE TO 0.01 SECONDS. THE OFFICIAL DURATION WILL BE THE AVERAGE OF THE TWO TIMES, ROUNDED TO THE NEAREST 0.01 SECOND. IF ONE STOPWATCH MALFUNCTIONS, THE REMAINING SINGLE TIME WILL BE USED. DURATION SCORES WILL BE COMPUTED BY TAKING THE ABSOLUTE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 45 SECONDS AND THE MEASURED AVERAGE FLIGHT DURATION TO THE NEAREST 1/100 SCONED (THIS DIFFERENCE IS ALWAYS A POSITIVE NUMBER, OR ZERO), AND MULTIPLYING THIS BY 2. ALTITUDE SCORING: ROCKETS MUST CONTAIN THE COMMERCIAL ELECTRONIC ALTIMETER (PERFECTFLITE MODEL ALT 15K OR ALT 15K REV 2) APPROVED FOR USE IN THE TEAM AMERICA EVENT, IN A COMPARTMENT THAT IS PROPERLY VENTED TO THE ATMOSPHERE. THE ALTIMETER MUST BE INSPECTED BY AN NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF ROCKETRY OFFICIAL BOTH BEFORE AND AFTER THE FLIGHT, AND MAY NOT BE MODIFIED IN ANY MANNER. THE ALTIMETER MUST BE CONFIRMED BY THIS OFFICIAL TO HAVE RESET TO ZERO BEFORE FLIGHT. THE ALTITUDE OF THE PORTION OF THE ROCKET CONTAINING THE EGG, AS RECORDED BY THIS ALTIMETER, WILL BE THE SOLE BASIS FOR JUDGING THE ALTITUDE SCORE. THE SCORE WILL BE THE ABSOLUTE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 750 FEET AND THE ALTIMETER-REPORTED ALTITUDE IN FEET (THIS DIFFERENCE IS ALWAYS A POSITIVE NUMBER, OR ZERO).
