Default FAI-KM on OLC ???

No declaration required for OLC. You do need to close the triangle with
less than 1000m altitude loss.


The BHC (Baron Hilton Cup) needs to be declared but the 25/28% rules do not apply. I believe the tasks can have only one or 2 turnpoints.

For the triangle 'bonus' in OLC-Plus, the 25/28% rule does apply. A declaration is not required.

For FAI tasks the triangle needs to satisfy the 28% rule up to 750km, then 25%. A change in the OLC-Plus rules is the 28% goes up to 500km then 28% afterwards. So it is a bit easier to make a triangle on OLC.
