The flight

What the tracklog shows, and which crossings scored.

How this works

Crossed the start cylinder boundary 21 times. The scored start is the latest crossing from which the flight still makes its best run along the course — re-starting supersedes an earlier start, while simply flying back through the cylinder later in the task changes nothing.
…9 more crossings…
The 15:00:50 crossing is the scored start — the last one made, so it supersedes every earlier crossing.
Start time taken: gate 5 of 6 — the last start gate at or before the crossing. The speed-section clock runs from the gate, not from the crossing (FAI S7F §9.2.4.1).15:00:00
Completed the task — full task distance is credited.

Day quality — points on offer

Task validity 95% of a perfect day, so 950 of 1000 points were available.

How this works

Launch validity — the day counts for less if much of the field never got into the air.100%

41 pilots flew out of 41 present. Nominal launch is 96%, so launch validity is full once 40 pilots are in the air.

Distance validity — the day counts for less if the field as a whole did not get far.100%

Measured against a 35.0 km nominal distance, a 30% nominal goal and a 5.0 km minimum distance. The field flew 49.8 km past the minimum on average, with a best of 67.8 km.

How far the field got — the spread distance validity is computed from, one dot per pilot. 41 pilots flew; you flew 67.8 km, further than 12 of them. The day averaged 49.8 km past the 5.0 km minimum, against a 35.0 km nominal distance.
Time validity — the day counts for less if the fastest pilot got round much quicker than the task was meant to take.95%

The fastest pilot took 1:12:01 against a nominal task time of 1:30:00 — 80% of nominal.

Points on offer for the day950 pts

1000 × 1.00 × 1.00 × 0.95 = 950

Split between the components: 29 of 41 pilots made goal — a goal ratio of 0.71

distance 353 · time 596.9

The share each component takes of the day

distance 37.2% · time 62.8%

Leading weight follows the FAI S7F 2026 §11 formula: 18% of the non-distance weight (the task's Leading Time Ratio) goes to leading.

Distance points

Full distance — one of 29 pilots in goal

How this works

Task distance67.8 km

The optimized task line — the shortest legal way round the turnpoints.

Scored distance67.8 km

Measured along the optimized task line, up to the furthest point on course.

Best distance in class67.8 km
Made goal — full available distance points.353 pts
The curve is the distance-points formula, half of it built from where the field landed out (FAI S7F §12.1.1) — every dot is a pilot, sitting exactly on it. Its steepest stretches are the ones fewest pilots got past, so flying through one is worth more than the same distance somewhere easy. You flew 67.8 km of the class best 67.8 km, worth 353 of 353.

Time points

596.9 of 596.9 pts

Fastest of 29 through the speed section

How this works

Your speed section time1:12:01

Timed from your 15:00:00 start gate to the end of the speed section (FAI S7F §9.4) — you crossed the start at 15:00:50.

Fastest time in class1:12:01
Fastest through the speed section — full available time points.596.9 pts
The curve is the time-points formula — every dot is a pilot, sitting exactly on it. You set the fastest time, at the top of the curve.

Total

950 of 950 pts

How this works

Distance + time + leading + arrival, minus penalties950 pts

353.0 + 596.9 ≈ 950 — the points above are shown rounded to 0.1; the total is rounded from their exact sum.
