Hero emulation
So, after reading all of this I'm inclined to ask if anyone actually has put together a training program on how to best evaluate conditions and safely perform a "contest finish" in such a manner that mitigates some of the perceived risks. Shooting from the hip or winging it for a new guy is the most dangerous scenario, but getting mentored and learning the do's and don'ts could help improve the results. Simply decreeing "don't" isn't helping because it still happens every weekend at many gliderports, including mine.
If you can't make it go away, make it safer. Paul Agnew Jupiter, FL ASW-19
