Default Diamond goal flight rejected due to typo


SSA contest numbers are unique but they are assigned to a person not a
sailplane. Maybe that is the rub.- Hide quoted text -

Yes I own the rights to SA my contest ID. But suppose my friend let
me use his Discus to do the flight, it wouldn't have made a flip of
difference of the validity of the flight. Again, the only problem
here is that I typed in SA vs. N-2429. So therefor it makes the whole
entire claim Invalid.

I appreciate the fact that we have dedicated people in this sport who
are going provide checks and balances to badges and record claims. I
really do appreciate them. It would take the fun out of soaring if
somebody set a record using an engine. But this is overkill.

I got a few emails today on an appeal process. Hopefully this will
get overturned. Diamonds don't grow on trees down here in
Memphis....doing the flight again in a club class glider would call
for some more good luck.
