USA and FAI rules
For once, I agree with Kirk! One-turn MATs are evil, but also a good learning experience. I remember one contest at Parowan some years ago where the threat of widespread thunderstorms led the CD to set one of these. I chose a largish triangle with two turnpoints that both ended up having thunderstorms right over the top of them. With no nearby turnpoints, I had to dash under the storm cloud, dodging hail and lightning to get within the 1-mile radius. Never again!
