The SSA website has the IGC files. �If you look at them, you will see that takeoff was around 1930 zulu. �If I am doing my time conversion correctly, that was 3:30 pm EDT. �Thus, probably there was a very brief and late weather window in which to launch and have a task. We had overcast skies and rain till around 1 pm. At noon the CD called a 3 pm grid with a pilots meeting at grid front. We launched the snifers and they reported main ridge was working supporting the tast that John had called. What some of us didn't realize was the new scoring rules about being undertime. So, some of us slowed up as the task was a TAT 1 hr and 30 minute task and we were under time big time. But that affects how your score is computed with the new rules. The ridge task was really good and it was better than sitting around watch flicks. The ridge was also very rough and we took a pounding in some areas. Trust me, the CD and his advisors, know this area very well, they make great calls and we all are grateful for their time given so we can fly. # 711. |
