[igc sport code 3 Annex A para 1.2.2.<br />8.2.1 Championship Day In order that a Day may be counted as a valid Championship<br />Day in any class:<br />a. For each class, a launch opportunity shall have been given to each<br />competitor in time for the competitor to carry out the task of the Day in<br />question, and<br />b. For each class, more than 25% of the competitors, who have had a<br />competition launch on that Day, shall have flown a Marking Distance of at<br />least 100 km (after any handicapping is applied).<br />We can expect that every effort to get 15m a third and fourth day, and 18m a fourth; it would be unfortunate to travel 12,500km each way not to have a Championship.<br />Fingers crossed for Luke and Sergei!Dan Dalyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203094849718626365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1713867173988583852.post-26656868577057180112017-01-14T08:57:45.684-06:002017-01-14T08:57:45.684-06:00Good work and advancement too!

It wasn't obvious why the speeds were decreasing on the third leg, but looking at the thermal drifts showed that the wind had picked up significantly from the south. It was going to be tough to get back home...
