·Minimum number of entries for the event to be flighted: This only applies to meets set-up with the Meet Type as Flighted Divisions. A Flighted Meet is one that has two levels of Scoring where the Athletes entered in the Event are divided in half. For example, if 48 Athletes are entered in the 11-12 50 Free, then the fastest 24 are competing against one another and the slowest 24 are competing against one another. There will be two 1st places, two 2nd places, etc. The "Minimum Number of Entries..." question tells MM when to Flight the event. If this value is 50, then the event in the above example would NOT be flighted.  
·Flights based on Seed Time or Finals Time: You have the choice to divide the event based on seed time or finals time.  

Note: If an event is set up as multi-age group, the flight rules above will apply to each age group within the event. So if there are two age groups, say 13-14 with 15 swimmers and 15-18 with 25 swimmers, the 13-14 will not be split into two flights, but the 15-18 will be divided into a flight of 12 and 13 with the 13 being in the faster flight.
