Default WWGC.

If anything, the penality response to the 2019 WWGC "real time tracking" has sent the message its OK to cheat in FAI soaring competitions. How disgraceful, how disappointing! A one-time 225 point penality is absurd considering it "covers" 9 days of scoring.

So the question ... what should the penality be in this instance? Opining: First, team pilots should be given a contest score of 1 point per contest day. Following: Team management, technicians, and pilots should be banned from the premisess of any World Gliding Championships for the next two championships.

Directed to Eric Mozer and Rick Sheppe: It is my deepest hope the IGC will amend Annex A to install harsher penalties for rule infractions deemed "Unsporting Behavior". Above and beyond all, soaring needs to eliminate cheating.

IGC, please step up.
