Hilton Cup Handicap questions
Ok, I have laid out the 1000K FAI traingle, working on the water to
load on board (thanks everyone for the comments) to try to get around then I look up the handicaps to see how the Ventus B stacks up when I find this: Ventus B .885 Ventus 2A .895 Ventus 2B .900 LS6 A/B/C .900 ASW27B .907 What am I missing here? Anyone want to trade a V2 or ASW27B for my Ventus B? The handicap says my 23 year old Ventus is better than your new ones. Tim

The 2005 SSA handicaps say:
Ventus B .899 Ventus 2A .883 Ventus 2B .884 ASW 27 .880 Anyhow it amounts to a couple of bug's worth difference between them.

Oh sorry forgot to include my numbers came from:
http://barronhiltoncup.com/ The SSA numbers would make much more sense.

The hilton cup numbers look like they are based on how easy the glider
is to fly - at least for the Ventus B vs LS6 (from personal experience)! Kirk 66
