2008 Contest maps now available
I am pleased to announce that at the suggestion of John Seaborn,
GlidePlan will be making contest maps available for all 2008 SSA sanctioned contests on our website. These maps will be constructed from current NACO sectional scans, valid as of the date of the contest. The map areas will accommodate overlay of the official turnpoints plus a buffer of about 50 nm beyond. All maps are designed for use with GlidePlan software and are provided free for download. GlidePlan can import SeeYou formatted (.cup) turnpoint lists from the WW Turnpoint Exchange for overlay and customization on the maps. The Region 5 South/Standard Class Nationals, and 18 meter nationals maps are already available for download at http://www.glideplan.com/download/contest.html Many thanks go out to John for his technical and strategic suggestions while working on the racing section of the SSA website, as well as his encouragement in making this possible. Looking forward to a great racing season. Matt Herron Jr. |

Thanks Kevin.
I just added three more contest maps: Region 5 World & Sports Class Contest Region 6 Contest Region 11 Contest &Sport Class Nationals The last one may be timely for those going to any of the XC and racing camps put on by Craggy Aero. I have also updated and enlarged the collection of custom maps, including some huge areas covering the rockies, south and East of Denver. Questions or comments can be fired off to matt(at)glideplan.com. Matt (Jr) |
