US International Team (Squad) Ranking

Add my thanks to that of John Seaborn and others for the Herculean contribution of Dr Leibacher to our sport. Keeping all those data bases current would seem to be the equivalent of a full time job, yet we in the soaring world get it all for a couple clicks. (And have been for decades.)

Not sure what we would do without John's generosity.

Merci, danke, etc.

Agreed. Every time I go to the Worldwide Turnpoint Exchange and download files of various sorts for a contest, I marvel that somehow they all get updated and in the right formats. I fear most of us just take it for granted--in the worst sense of those words--that this just "happens", always has, and always will. Obviously none of that is true, which is a tribute to John's efforts and time. Thanks!!!!

Same for Lynn on soaringdata.info; only way I can convert easily to .stk files.
