Traditionally, Horsham Week has been an entry level comp with pilots
required to nominate 3 flying days in advance to allow sharing of a glider
for the 8 days. The idea was to attract beginner-pilots to share a club

My understanding is that on day one of the contest, without warning, the CD
announced that the Scorer was only interested in scoring according to
Australian National rules, or was not prepared to score the contest. It
seems the pilots acceded to this ultimatum, thus raising the spectre of
duress.
The Horsham Week competition is run by the pilots themselves. They set the
rules. I expect that the GFA guidelines are respected. However the pilots can
