Default WGC Final Report, John Good

How to fix future WGCs so they measure pilot ability, not the ability of countries to cheat within the rules. Level the playing field for small countries that can not field large complex teams. After all, is the WGC not meant to determine the best pilot?

1. Take away the team flying
a. one pilot per country per class
b. no pilot-to pilot communication except safety calls
c. no pilot to ground communication

2. Take away the ground "team"
a. no tactical information to pilots from any source outside their eyeballs and on-board flarm


3. Institute harsh penalties such as Tijl suggest that would disqualify the team for the duration of the competition and ban the offending pilot for life.

4. Apply pilot event marker controlled starts to minimize start gate games.


This trajectory the WGC is on is destructive as shown by the blatant cheating that occurs within loopholes while trying to get "your" country on top instead of trying to determine the best pilot at the competition.
