Hi Adam & All,
Sigh!
When all else fails, I guess one needs to read, absorb, understand, and apply
the rules!
As many a glider pilot has found out to their cost, what a difference a metre
or ten can make!
Thank you all.
Gary

Hi Gary and all,
Have seen this a few times lately... My understanding is that OLC requires
the flight track to be 'closed' ie you cross the path of your outgoing track
when finishing. (for triangle scores, not standard olc)
I could be wrong, but this seems fairly consistent with other flights I have
seen.
Cheers
Adam

Hi All,
On several flights I have done a flight that seems (by inspection), to
includes a nice (FAI), triangle, and indeed shows up on the SeeYou site as a
substantial - say 200 - 400 km - FAI triangle, and yet the OLC site manages to
find a max FAI triangle of about 6 km or so for this very same flight!
Am I missing something here?
Can anybody explain the mechanics of this to me? Is there a glitch on the
OLC site?
Gary
