Looks like there is still the limitation on multiple records. If I've
read this right, you can't claim straight to a goal and O&R distance on
the same flight. Perhaps I've read this wrong?

Per the sporting code, this cannot be done due to the definition of
GOAL and the limitation of only one declaration.

So to declare the O&R, your far point is a TURN POINT, and your START/
FINISH is your GOAL. You may not use the TURN POINT as a GOAL.

Excerpts from the Sporting Code:


START 1.1.7 The beginning of the SOARING PERFORMANCE. It must be
either:
a. The release from launch, or stopping the use of any means of
propulsion, or
b. Leaving the OBSERVATION ZONE of a START POINT, or
c. Crossing a START LINE.

START POINT 1.1.8 The WAY POINT marking the beginning of a SOARING
PERFORMANCE. It must be either:
a. The RELEASE POINT, or
b. A WAY POINT declared as a START POINT, or
c. The midpoint of a START LINE.

START LINE 1.1.9 A horizontal line, 1 km in length, oriented
approximately perpendicular to the first LEG.
The midpoint of the line (the START POINT) is at ground level.

TURN POINT 1.1.10 A WAY POINT between two LEGS of a flight.

FINISH 1.1.11 The end of the SOARING PERFORMANCE. It occurs on:
a. Landing the glider, or
b. Entering the OBSERVATION ZONE of the FINISH POINT, or
c. Crossing a FINISH LINE, or
d. Starting an MoP.

FINISH POINT 1.1.12 The WAY POINT marking the end of a SOARING
PERFORMANCE. It is:
a. The point at which the nose of the glider comes to rest without
external assistance after landing, or
b. A WAY POINT declared as the FINISH POINT or goal, or
c. The midpoint of a FINISH LINE, or
d. The point at which an MoP is started.

FINISH LINE 1.1.13 A horizontal line, 1 km in length, oriented
approximately perpendicular to the final LEG. The midpoint of the line
(the FINISH POINT) is at ground level.

GOAL 1.1.14 A FINISH POINT specified in a DECLARATION (see 4.3.3).


4.3.3 Achieving the goal
Where the soaring performance is required to end at a declared finish
point, the goal will be achieved if:
a. The landing point is within 1000 metres of the declared finish
point or,
b. If the finish point is an airfield, the landing is within the
boundaries of the airfield or,
c. Satisfactory evidence is produced showing that the glider was in
the observation zone and within 1000 metres of the finish point, or
d. A finish line at the goal is crossed.
e. For any type of closed course goal flight where a start other than
release or a start line is used, the glider must exit the start point
OZ within 1000 metres of the declared start point.
