  • US: Pilot Ranking List (PRL) for 2024

    From John Leibacher@21:1/5 to All on Sat Sep 23 10:38:50 2023
    With the completion of Region 4 South, the 2023 racing season
    is all wrapped up, and the 2024 SSA Pilot Ranking List (PRL)
    is available at http://soaringweb.org/PRL [and mirror sites serkowski.com/soaring/PRL/, soaring.silentflight.ca/PRL/, and http://glidertracking.fai.org/WSTPX/PRL/].

    There are always some glitches in identifying pilots from the score
    sheets, team members, etc., so please check things over and send along
    your questions and comments directly to me at [email protected].

    Note, that because of the cancellation of most contests during the 2020 competition season, the Rules Committee proposed a change in calculating
    pilot rankings. Instead of using the best ranking in the last three years,
    the last four years will be used until 2020 is the last of the four years; that is this is the last year that 2020 will count.

    Best wishes for a great, safe season in 2024!!
