Default SSA Contest Committee Announcement on COVID-19 and 2020 Contest Schedule

It's 8 AM. The forecast says maybe maybe sunlight at 2:30. Some people want to cancel the day. I say why not wait until 1:30 and see if the forecast is coming true?


The logic is good, but the modeling is a bit off. I think it is more like: its 8am, radar shows that it will rain heavily from 9 to about 12, with possible clearing at 2:30. Should you encourage 30 people to drive 3 hours each to the airport to be ready to assemble at 1pm?

This is a nothing burger and if we quit flying feminine hysteric values wins. And for the record I do not do what the NBA does they are a rather poor role model, c'mon don't you have a tv?

I'm not the blog police, but please knock off the misogynistic comments. There have been other potentially offensive posts on RAS that have no place here. Need I point out that a US woman won the WWGC this past year? The last time a US male won was before my 30 year old kids were born.

Duster, wonder of wonders, a WOMAN won the World Woman’s Glider contest. Gee ignorance is rampant, maybe the china virus affects intellect as an unreported side affect.

A big congradulation to Sarah and the team, job very well done!!! I know the french gals were stalking back there, but as is all things “french” they fade when the pressure is applied lol
