Default Starts Procedures ; Proposal

Changing the Start Procedures alone is unfortunately not sufficient. The

now
possible in Cockpit Tracking with smartphones on the OGN sites still gives
the
possibility of following a track/route of any glider. So this has to be
also
addressed and if possible FLARM tracking signals to be delayed or
eliminated.
Best would be proprietary IGC Tracking units which can have a controlled
output signal.

Decisions from IGC Bureau Meeting
Paris, 6 and 7 October 2018
2018 - 2019 Budget
The budget of 20.000€ for design, development and procurement of IGC
owned glider tracking system for use in WGC’s. Standards for the system
are
still to be determined but will focus on safety, fairness and transparency.
The
Bureau will seek confirmation of this decision by the Plenary meeting
2020.
