Summary

Comment & Pix Task 2

This task was delayed overnight to Sunday morning. It relied on the idea that there were distinguishing features at each turnpoint which the pilot should note down as proof he has been there, rather than take a photo (which are a big pain for the organisation to analyze).

Because of the overnight delay - and the worry from some teams that others may have sent out scouts, the task was converted to mandatory photos.

It is interesting to compare the "declared" score and "photo evidence" score of each pilot. The top pilots in the task all scored equally well, others had camera trouble or were unable to answer the questions correctly.....
