S7A-XC CIVL GAP – 8.1.1 Reaching a turnpoint cylinder

For Cat 2, the maximum tolerance is 0.5%, to allow pilots to still use equipment
that calculates distances on the FAI sphere.

Amendments voted and approved unanimously.

Recommendation: to continue analyzing actual turnpoint errors, and potential
turnpoint errors at lower tolerances.

5.3 SeeYou Scoring

Discussion of the failure to complete the testing of SeeYou as the planned
replacement of the FS scoring system. The proposed solution was to get an expert
facilitator between the CIVL software working group members and Naviter to keep
the project moving forward. Joerg Ewald accepted this role and we believe we
should get through sufficient testing in 2019 to have the opportunity to move to
SeeYou in 2020.
