FAI ratifies records of illegal flights.
That's a fair claim, if that's the way it happened.* ...Unless the rules

Would not the "soaring performance" have ended at the finish line crossing and not at the landing? Why is time of landing (or any rule violation) after the record performance is completed relevant to validity of the record claim? ROY -- Dan, 5J
