How do you compare an IGC file to a paper chart? Can the pilot state "I
was legal according to my paper chart" and get away with it? I thought
the standard for contests was the pilot flew according to the turnpoint
and airspace files the contest provided, so pilots, scoring program, and
the contest managers were all using the same data.
