Note this is a DHT(Distance Handicap Task). You need to set the Longview, Moose Mountain and Mt Head cylinder sizes according to the sailplane you choose. No checkpoint this task. This will likely require using an outside flight computer like XCSoar or LK8000.
Longview, Moose Mountain and Mt Head
ASW-15 - 4.5km
Libelle - 4.2km
Std Cirrus - 3.9km
ASW-19 - 3.6km
DG101G - 3.6km
Pegase - 3.0km
LS4a - 2.3km
LS3a - 1.4km
ASW20 - 0.5km
This week I can score the task as a racing task because the cylinders are below 5km. Therefore the Condor and Condor Club should be correct as long as everyone turned the correct cylinder radius. If you do not turn the proper turnpoint cylinder, your score will be removed.
Also note there are two penalty areas. One over the airport approximating the Calgary TCA and another to the southeast approximating the High River MF. I changed the Calgary TCA for this task since we are going further west.
