Default Crappy Gliders Rejoice!

IMO the FAI abd IGC should be approached about using commercial GPS's
for badges and records. A few years ago the hang gliding and
paragliding community got the FAI to allow the use of Garmin GPS's for
badges and world records. It took much discussion between the pilot
representatives, FAI and Garmin.

We should work towards reducing barriers.
