Default 1250k in a Sparrowhawk

Hot on the heels of Ron Schwartz' epic 1-26 flight... Jim Payne's
first XC in a Sparrowhawk.

Great pilot, great glider, great weather. This could be THE year for the
short-wing long-distance fliers.

Congratulations to Jim and to Greg.

Pity we don't have a contest class open only to all sub-15m ships.
