In the sporting code it states for F1D:
*Note: In this case, the timekeepers shall continue to time for ten seconds
after translational movement has ceased. Should the model remain in contact
with the building or its contents after 10 seconds, timing will cease and
the 10 seconds will be subtracted from the flight time. Should the model
release itself from contact with the building in less than 10 seconds,
timing will continue normally.*
My question is the following (because it happened in Westbaden):
- if the model dislodges within 10 seconds because the pilot touched the
hang-up model. Does timing continue?
- if the model dislodges within 10 seconds because the pilot created air
currents with the steering balloon. Does timing continue?
- if the model dislodges within 10 seconds because another model
collided against the hang-up model. Does timing continue?
- if the model does not dislodge within 10 seconds, but another model
collided to the hang-up model. Is this a midair collision and a re-flight
can be granted?
- Does the other model that collides with a hang-up model has the right
for a re-flight?
Here is an illustration of a case that is videotaped:

Maybe more clarification is needed in the sporting code.
