I received an email stating that my diamond goal flight has been
rejected due to a typo on my igc declaration. Despite the fact that
the security was good, all turnpoints rounded ok, and everything else
good, it's still rejected.

On the IGC declaration where it says "registered ID" I typed in "SA"
because that is my paid-for registered contest ID. Apparently I
should have typed in "N-2429". So because of this, the flight doesn't
count.

I was also informed that on page 53 of the March 2010 Soaring
magazine, it says (in 8 point font) that you can no longer use your
register contest ID. This really doesn't make a whole lot of sense to
me. The glider type is in question, not the security, date or name
even though it's not a handicapped claim! I only own one aircraft,
which can be easily verified through the FAA aircraft registry.


So now I am merely trying to figure out the best way to solve this
claim.

Does anyone have any suggestions of who I might contact to help get
this claim to pass? I would really like to say I did a diamond flight
but unfortunately because of this new rule, I can't say I did a
diamond flight.
