A divisional SO event are SO events intended to be for the divisions SO community.
There is no minimum requirement to create divisional events.
SO HQ is not involved in the validation of divisional events.
Before you develop a Divisional SO event, you must ensure to consider the following points.
- Disruption of non-participating traffic
a. What disruption may be created to traffic not involved?
b. Do you need to establish restricted airspace? How will this affect traffic?
c. Do you have enough ATC services for the event? Do you require civil ATC?
- Difficulty of the event
a. What level of pilot/ATC is this event designed for? Will this limit participation?
b. Is there enough guidance/documentation to allow a pilot to participate?
c. How easy is it to understand the brief/plan? Is it too confusing?
- Event length and size
a. Are there enough slots for high-level participation?
b. How long do you think the event will be? Too long? Too short?
c. Have you tested the flight to ensure reasonable timing?
- Documentation
a. Are there suitable airfield charts available? Do you need to create your own?
- Scenery and Aircrafts
a. Are you providing scenery for the event? Is it needed?
b. Have you provided scenery for XP11, FSX, P3D, MSFS?
c. Are you limiting the type of aircraft or equipment? Do you need to?
We advise that divisional events are created to the same detail as International events, for more information refers to Special Operations Instruction No. 5
Only users from the division of the event may attend the event, any members for of divisions must get prior approval from the division's staff to participate. Therefore divisional events should not be advertised externally of the division.
Suppose a division wishes to invite other division members.
In that case, we advise that they submit the event to SO HQ for approval as an International event.
