Over the years (30 or so) Caesar Creek Soaring Club has vacillated
with setting the altimeter to zero or MSL. Last year the Board decided
to put the Club ships on an MSL basis (private gliders exempted).
There are however a number of members who are continuing to make it an
issue. I would be interested in your thought and comments.

It seems to me it would make a lot more sense to use MSL, as then the
elevation on the altimeter will correspond to the elevations on the
sectionals and other charts and maps. What is the rationale for using AGL?
