Thanks goes to all pilots for joining us in the sky over Beskydy mountains area and also thanks to the tasksetter Radek Miča (RUM). Big thanks goes to Miloš "Cadfael" Koch (MK) and his www.condorworld.eu for hosting Condor servers.
We wish you all Merry Christmas 2017, friends!
Welcome to the next virtual soaring competition. Nearly two years later we return to the Beskydy area to have 2nd edition of Beskydy Gliding Cup.
Frýdlant nad Ostravicí is a small town in the Moravian-Silesian Region of the Czech Republic. It lies on the Ostravice River at the foot of hill Lysá hora (1323 meters).
Length of tasks will be about 300 km, we will race in 15-METER CLASS (ASW27, Ventus2, LS6) with PDA. Competition servers will always start at 20:00 CET (19:00 UTC). Overall results is simple count of all seven tasks.
Attention: choose carefully glider type in registration - with registered glider type you have to fly all tasks! Server passwords will be published in briefing page. After each race you must send IGC file to be scored! More informations about competition in Rules section.

Condor › The Competition Soaring Simulator
Condor: The Competition Soaring Simulator is designed to recreate the ultimate experience of competition soaring on your PC. A lot of attention was put in to create an environment which would create an immersion of real competition flying. This means that the aerodynamics and weather physics were in focus of the development. The result is amazingly real feel of flight in all flight regimes and weather conditions which challenges a real soaring pilot on a competition day.
Amazing feel of flight due to the advanced flight dynamics model: Advanced 6DOF flight model for complete freedom of flying / Accurate sailplane performance and handling – also at and beyond critical angles of attack / Sailplane damage simulation – flutter, high G stress, collisions / High time fidelity physics engine (up to 500 cycles per second) / Accurate ground forces for realistic takeoffs, landings and crashes / Detailed, sub-object collision detection for mid air and ground object collisions / Accurate conditions for a realistic towing and winch start.
