A pox upon the IGC. What a bunch of flaccid, low testosterone ******s. Screw Europe, we should go our own way.


Evan, you seem to be upset about a decision IGC made to discontinue motorglider records - 20 years ago.

There are good reasons to preserve motorglider records at the national level. Your beef is with SSA, not IGC.

-Pat

P.S. Have you heard that they also got rid of cameras and barographs?


Goodness. No, that's not it. If in fact you've misunderstood my objection, my previous response should clarify. If you are simply poking fun, yeah, I get it :-).

There are issues at both the IGC and SSA level.

best,
Evan
