Sporting Code
Section 3 – Gliders
The FAI Sporting Code for gliders (the “Code”) sets out the rules
and procedures to be used to verify soaring performances. The
essence of these rules is to ensure that a soaring performance is
achieved to a level of proof that is consistent for all flights. When
processing the evidence supplied, Official Observers (OO) and
the National Airsport Control (NAC) should ensure that these
rules are applied in the spirit of fair play and competition.
In Chapter 1 of the Code, a word or phrase appearing in small
capital letters indicates that it has a distinct definition as it
applies to the Code.
References outside a chapter are by paragraph number.
Text in italic is informational in nature and not part of
the rules and regulations of the Code.
