Default 2013 USA Competition Rules Published

Hi,

Thanks for the feedback that the link below was to an old version of the
file on the SSA web site. I have updated the link.

Hi Peter,

Yes. The Sailplane Racing Association's Guide to Soaring Competition is the
best resource I'm aware of.
http://www.cumulus-soaring.com/books/SRA/SRA-Guide.htm

Many other excellent free soaring article downloads are available he

Also, reading the rules is highly recommended. They are intimidating and
not very exciting, but not so tough to read as they appear at first glance.

Best Regards,

Paul Remde

There are no changes from the summary of changes published earlier.

Thanks guys, I do have a newbie question. Is there a good resource for
neophyte racing pilots that explains tasks, start procedures, strategies
etc?

I think that may actually help people get into racing.

Thanks

Pete
