Default FAI Sailplane Grand Prix USA 🇺🇸 Orlando

Again, don't be fooled by poor word choices! Or by #fakenews

Further examination of these "US rules Assigned Tasjs" has revealed more damning evidence that assigned tasks simply no longer exists in the SSA/USA. Period!

After feeling highly skeptical about your claim, I just took brief look a closer look during my flight this morning. I was not disappointed. I quickly learned that these two "Assigned in Name Only" US Rules (not racing) tasks were perverted even more than normal. What a joke it is to call any US rules task "assigned..." Please stop. It's embarrassing.

Perry Open Class (Day 2):
"ASSIGNED TASK (AiNO!)"
Name Radius
Start 2 5.0
Newberry 15.0 ----- ????
McCormi 15.0 ------ ????
Bamburg 10.0 ------- ?????
Finish 1.0

So let me get this straight. 15, 15, and 10 mike radi qualifies for "assigned tasking" in the USA? Why am I not surprised?

Perry 18 meter Class (Day 2)
MODIFIED ASSIGNED TASK (AiNO!)
Name Radius
Start 2 5.0
Newberry 15.0 ---- ;-)
McCormic12.0 ----- lol
Williston 10.0 ----- sigh
Bamburg 1.0 ---- at least one was a mile radius, despite really being a Turn Area and not assigned area.

I give you US assigned tasks!
