Default FAI (IGC) rules for US Club Class Nationals - Petition

Ron,

Thanks for clarifying. I was not aware of previous US Scorer experience with SeeYou Competition. This is very useful.

May I ask you to expound on this "MUCH" experience with See You Competition and US Scorers? Please be specific and list what competitions you (or others) have scored using SeeYou Comp. I would be shocked if you cite competitions in the USA. Or did you (or others) go overseas (any other gliding country in the World that does not use US rules)?

Could you further expound on what your previous experience was like in terms of initial learning curve, ease of use, etc.

How would you rate your experience using SeeYou Competition at the 2012 Uvalde World Championships (with this MUCH previous experience)?

Was SeeYou Comp reasonably easy to use? Was it unusable?

How does it compare to Winscore? What were your impressions on the FAI rules vs. US Rules? I understand you are biased to the US rules (per your comment). Nonetheless, your insigt is most welcomed.

Sincerely,

Sean
F2/7T

Other than the 1-26 class I not sure how the SSA RC has allowed anything other than Winscore in the past. *I see no problems using SeeYou Competition, like any scoring program you need experience with it. *There are a number of 'administrative' steps that become manual with SeeYou.












There is no rules-required official scoring program. Use a slide rule








if you want to. 1-26ers use their own program.

Thanks John, need to find and dust off that slide ruler!








The SeeYou scoring module very easy to use with FAI rules. SeeYou was highly successfully when used by the American scorers during the 2012 World Championship in Uvalde this [ast summer. They all had minimal previous experience with it. I am sure other scorer's could pick it up just as easily..








SeeYou is good software, well supported by Naviteer and used by many major contests worldwide. Utilizing this software for the 2013 US FAI Club Class Nationals would be plug and play simple. My wife is excellent with both SeeYou and WinScore. She would be happy to help score (or fully score) for the contests I attend in 2013. I am also willing to train via GoToMeeting anytime...

this is an untrue statement, some of us, including me, have much experience with SeeYou Competition. Make sure you have your facts correct.



Will be watching to see how this unfolds, good luck. I support the SSA competition committee approach, I fly a ASW20 BL 8-)
