While browsing all the various international racing rules to get ideas
for our upcoming soaring camp, I came across the FAI's 39-page treatise on performance enhancing drugs, including the testing criteria. As an old geezer who doesn't fly cross-country nearly as fast as I could (some call me Captain Slow), I was captivated by the idea that there are drugs that can enhance the performance of a glider pilot. Obviously a sufficiently severe problem that needs 39 pages of rule- making! What are they and where can I get them? Obviously not alcohol - ruins your reaction time and you fly like cr@p, but you don't know it. Not marijuana either - also ruins your reaction time - except you know it, but don't care. Perhaps chewing coca leaves to improve oxygen uptake at high altitudes? (Oxygen is cheaper) I can't really think of any - so what is this severe problem that needs the 39 pages of rules? Mike |
