The flight
What the tracklog shows, and which crossings scored.
Start time taken: the start gate — the speed-section clock runs from the gate, not from the crossing (FAI S7F §8.3.1).13:00:00
Day quality — points on offer
Task validity 50.02% of a perfect day, so 500.2 of 1000 points were available.
Launch validity — did enough registered pilots launch?100%
Distance validity — did the field fly far enough relative to the nominal distance?50.02%
Time validity — was the winning time long enough relative to the nominal time?100%
Points on offer for the day500.2 pts

Distance points
177.5 ptsFlew 2.7 km, less than the 5.0 km minimum — scored as the minimum distance.
Scored distance5.0 km
Measured along the optimized task line, up to the furthest point on course.
Best distance in class22.2 km
Linear half — half the available points scale with your share of the best distance50.8 pts
0.5 × (5.0 km ÷ 22.16 km) × 450.2 = 50.8
Difficulty half — rewards flying past stretches where many pilots landed126.7 pts
The difficulty curve is built from where the whole field landed out (FAI S7F §11.1.1).
Time points
0 ptsTime points are only awarded to pilots who reach the end of the speed section.
Leading points
17.5 ptsLeading points reward flying out front during the speed section — the pilot with the best leading coefficient takes all available leading points, others fall off with the gap.17.5 pts
Measured with the classic squared-distance leading coefficient (S7F §11.3.1, the hang-gliding / GAP2016–2018 variant).
Arrival points
0 ptsArrival points reward crossing the end of the speed section early relative to the other pilots who reached it.0 pts
Total
194.9 ptsDistance + time + leading + arrival, minus penalties194.9 pts
177.5 + 0.0 + 17.5 ≈ 194.9 — the points above are shown rounded to 0.1; the total is rounded from their exact sum.
