Safety

  • Overall ratings were positive: satisfaction averaged 4.43/5 across 79 responses, and task safety averaged 4.15/5.
  • Task quality was viewed favorably by many pilots, with comments describing it as a great, interesting, exciting, or well-set task for the day’s weather. A few pilots felt it was too short, offered little chance to catch up, or became too lottery-like toward the end.
  • Safety feedback was mixed: several pilots noted risks from ridge running, crowding near Monte Avena or mountain waypoints, low clouds, and the final 15 km. A few felt the task was acceptable given the conditions, but potentially sketchy in places.
  • Pilot behavior was a recurring concern, with several pilots reporting aggressive flying, poor thermal-entry etiquette, cutting into gaggles, and ignoring established turn direction.
  • Weather and conditions shaped the day strongly, with several comments mentioning wind, rain, low clouds, moisture, and limited task-setting options. Many pilots seemed to accept that the task was adapted to difficult conditions.
  • Organization received several comments about unclear morning communication after the rain, announced times not being updated, early transport to takeoff, long waiting time, and limited shade. But also still received generally good feedback.
  • Elevated goal was raised in an isolated comment as a safety improvement to reduce the chance of landing in the city among cables. Suggestions for improvement also included clearer morning updates, better timing of transport to takeoff, more respect for published times, and isolated requests such as goal beer.
