Sylmarians and Kagelites,
Time for some fun flying, our annual comp and chili cook off!
Based on the previous years success, Jeff Chipman informs me that we will have the following classes:
Dahlsten Cup (Open) Flex wing gliders only. Pilots compete for the Dahlsten cup, race around predetermined course with lowest overall time winning. Possibly two start times, scoring accomplished by GPS track log. Pilots need the new waypoints that have been updated with altitude and may have been adjusted slightly from previous comps. Pilots should also set their GPS to record/update as quickly as possible.
Sport Class (H3, H4 & P3 pilots) Flexwing and paragliders compete in a race around a predetermined course (shorter than the open class). Idea of the sport class is to expose newer H3 and H4 pilots to the element of navigating a course using their GPS. Although topless gliders can enter this class it is normally reserved for kingposted gliders and paragliders.
See the separate forum entry for our Chili Cook off details and rules.
