Right on Christian. It’s time that the IGC bureaucracy, with its
expensive digs in Switzerland, its authoritarian ivory tower approach
and its penchant for spending other people’s money was brought
back to reality. This is that world-wide, gliding is an expensive,
shrinking sport, and that they would be better off addressing this
vital issue than creating more cost by unilaterally and
heavy-handedly legislating about logger security. Do barographs and
cameras have RSA level security?

Well...
looking at the response of this decision I remember what
the Swiss IGC delegate, Mr. Nietlispach, told me once,
because I was trying to forward a proposal to the IGC:

quote
"We (the IGC) tell the gliding community what to do,
not reverse!"

Reminds me of what the late Roger Woods once told me about the first
time he was Australian delegate to the IGC. He was taken aside and
told " forget the people who sent you here, here WE decide what
happens".

Do you really want the IGC to address the problem of the shrinking
sport of gliding given their "successful" track record?

How about we all send our badges back to the IGC? We know what we've
done and nobody else cares.
