Further more, The SC3 is leading and not the claim form.

Jan:
I am sorry but you are incorrect. I have substantial experience with record flying in SA. The very first step in the record ratification process for a foreign pilot is the submission of the claim to the SA NAC - which is how they certify the OO's appointment by them on the Form E, and they review all matters for establishment of a new SA record. There is a short list of individuals who can serve as OOs for records in SA and that person's status must be certified by the NAC as part of the record claim. As a further part of that process they review all of the work of the OO. They create a full dossier of the flight and that dossier (with the official stamp of the SA NAC on Form E) is what is given to the resident country's NAC - and they forward it to the FAI. We have not seen any of that dossier. I would make no decision based on "what somebody said, somebody else said, many years ago." I would want to see the dossier which would include a second FR file if there was one. It is the submitted paperwork that matters here (which is why we are required to submit record claims in writing) - and we have not seen it.

But, I think that you have quite made up your mind on this and further dialog is pointless. Good luck.

Roy,

You are mistaken.
The SSSA has an agreement with the Dutch NAC and delegates the record
approval. I flew over 60 Dutch records in SA and that was the procedure.
And, indeed, further dialog with you is pointless.
So, ask the FAI yourself why the record was ratified.
Good luck.
