This task has no start (SSS) turnpoint — the first turnpoint is treated as the start.

Day quality — points on offer

Task validity 39.73% of a perfect day, so 397.3 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?41.11%
Time validity — was the winning time long enough relative to the nominal time?96.64%

Best distance in class6.4 km
Linear half — half the available points scale with your share of the best distance140.4 pts

0.5 × (5.0 km ÷ 6.369 km) × 357.6 = 140.4

Difficulty half — rewards flying past stretches where many pilots landed158.6 pts

The difficulty curve is built from where the whole field landed out (FAI S7F §11.1.1).

Time points

0 pts
Time points are only awarded to pilots who reach the end of the speed section.

Leading points

16.7 pts
Leading 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.16.7 pts
Measured with the classic squared-distance leading coefficient (S7F §11.3.1, the hang-gliding / GAP2016–2018 variant).

Arrival points

0 pts
Arrival points reward crossing the end of the speed section early relative to the other pilots who reached it.0 pts
