The flight
What the tracklog shows, and which crossings scored.
Crossed the start cylinder boundary 16 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.
…and 4 more crossings
Start time taken: the start gate — the speed-section clock runs from the gate, not from the crossing (FAI S7F §8.3.1).14:15:00
Day quality — points on offer
Task validity 73.73% of a perfect day, so 737.3 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?74.35%
Time validity — was the winning time long enough relative to the nominal time?99.17%

Linear half — half the available points scale with your share of the best distance293.1 pts
0.5 × (10.413 km ÷ 11.786 km) × 663.6 = 293.1
Difficulty half — rewards flying past stretches where many pilots landed319.6 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
0 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.0 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
