Triangle tasks should conform to
the 28% FAI ruling ie. The shortest leg should
be at least 28% of the total distance of the triangle,
and the angles of the triangle should be no less
than 28 degrees. |

A multiplier of 1.33 will be awarded
to out and return tasks, and a multiplier of 1.5
will be awarded to triangle tasks. |
| - |
Pilots flying out and returns or
triangle tasks must complete at 50% of the final
leg of their task in order to qualify for the
multiplier. Incomplete out and returns or triangles
will receive straight line credit along the route
flown, including turn points. |
| - |
The final score for each pilot will
be determined by scanning his/her best 2 flights.
Pilots may make more than one flight each day
