Aerobatic FAI F3C Contest > C Schedule

Hi there friends!
Have anyone had the ability to measure the flight time for the C schedule in contest yet.
Is 10 minutes enough to complete all the manoeuvres?
My main concern is all the 2 second stops in hovering and the flyby before the autorotation.

I just hosted the first contest of the season in the US. We were keeping track of most of the times for C schedule. It was completed under ten minutes most of the time, but just barely. Most times were around 9:30

The trick was to finish the spike and turn around as soon as possible. Don't take off for a far out turn-around.

It looks like they will be adding 1 minute to the schedule just to be safe.

I remember the emails about the stops in the hovering. I do find however the flying manuvers of Schedule C doesn't take much time. I actually hoped they would make the little stops in the 90' moving legs just a noticeable stop rather than the usual 2 second thing (Can anyone read in how much I hate hovering?) hehehe. The way the judges do things this side I'll zero out all my hovering manuvers in Schedule C. Hahaa
