Class PL2 Task 7: Cancellation of the Task 7
Submitted 5 Aug 2009 17:44 CET by Ekimov Kirill RUS

Complaint from the PL2 pilot Samusenko Svetlana
I’m dissatisfied with the conditions of carrying out for today's Task 9, as I was flying that Task one of the last; I have faced more severe conditions of its passage, than the previous ones which have been canceled (Task 7).
And I think that the Director gave an unfair advantage to those pilots who did not complete the Task 7, and gave them the second attempt to fly it. (S10 4.25.3).
I ask either to return points for the first variant of the Task (Task 7) or to cancel both results (Task 7 and Task 9) and to fly it once again.
Thanks.

Director's response

It is true all pilots had the opportunity to start task 7 in class PL2, so it should have been valid.

Unfortunately it was not apparent until some time after takeoffs were suspended that the task in this class might have been valid so the office turned away offers for flight recorders to be downloaded immediately, and when it did ask for loggers to be brought in for download it became apparent that some teams had reset theirs so they no longer had any flight data.

In the the interests of fairness for all, task 7 was cancelled, a very similar task was created over a new route, and that is what you flew as task 9.

In task 9, all aircraft in class PL2 were assigned IP2 times between 09:52 and 10:12 so it is irrelevent whether the meterological conditions were better or worse than in task 7 because you were all still competing together in the same conditions.
