Sounds like great fun for the pilots and the crowd. How novel! ;-)

Good for them in trying to innovate and bring gliding into the view of the public.

It's the ultimate evolution of soaring - no messing with thermal, wave or ridge lift - just cut right to the chase - final glide races. Pilot with the most accurate glide computer wins.

Is the course short enough that the crowd can see anything?

I'm curious - I'll watch one at least. Sounds kind of like NASCAR.
