Jury President's Report on the Worlds
Jury President's report of the Worlds in Florida last spring
here.
The recently introduced rule on ballast limits should be
re-examined by the CIVL hang gliding subcommittee as some pilots who carry two
parachutes appear to be on the limit even without carrying essential water. The
current version of Section 7A imposes this limit for all classes of hang glider
even though the 2005 Plenary decision only related to Class 5; this should be
amended.
General comments: this was an enjoyable championship for the competing pilots
with generally good flying weather, a friendly organisation and safe towing
operations.
