Starts Procedures ; Proposal

I would say that this proposal is beautiful. It will brake down the start game, all competitions have to make there own tactical decision about when to start.

In Kawas(or any one else in leading position) case is there no need to make an false start to trig the leachers (as it is today). When the leader is starting are all the leachers at least 10min behind as they has not pressed the event button when needed. The concept of have to be in the gaggle disappears as there will be no gaggles. All pilots has to make their own idea of the right starting time and that with 10-20min in advance. The only gaggle that will appear is by those who had the same idea of what is the “right� time to start.

The dynamics of start game will be this: top team, the leaders, will start. Everyone else will press event button and start 10 minutes later. Instead of 50 glider gaggle we will have a one pair followed by 48 glider gaggle. Sorry for cynicism.
