Can you get a 1000km diploma with a free distance flight? It was my
understanding that Klaus Ohlman has not got a 2000 km diploma because his
flights of 3000 km and more were free distance rather than pre declared.
In 2.1.4 The sporting code states that the badges are awarded for 'distance
flights' of 1000km or more.
A distance flight for badges or for badges and records is defined and must
be declared

According to this, a straight distance course is allowed:

1.4.5 Distance performance for badges only
a. STRAIGHT DISTANCE
A flight from a START POINT to a FINISH POINT with no TURN POINTS. No
DECLARATION is required unless a START POINT other than the RELEASE
POINT is used or the FINISH POINT is also to be a GOAL.
