Cameras and mechanical barographs are quite suitable for badge flights.
You can buy a usable 35 mm cameras in any thrift store for a dollar or
so, then you just have to find an "old timer" with a barograph to loan
you. You may know a person like that already, and he might be a good
choice for an official observer. Since he owns one, he probably knows
the procedures for badges using cameras and barographs.


Yes, but there is hugh disadvantage. While I just fly over the
turnpont and turn after the beep, the camera user has to fly well over
the turnpont - bank the glider - realize that it was not enough - go
a but further again - bank again - take one or two pictures. It's
valid for all turnpoints including start sector.
I already donated my 35mm camera to the club but noone use it...
