Recorder certifications |
|
| IGC Position Recorder |
| International Gliding Commission (IGC)
introduced new class of recorders - position recorders. IGC Position
Recorder certificate is issued by national gliding committee and for
specific device. Because of that the certification is not worldwide. |
|
| On 2nd and 3rd of March 2012 there was and IGC Plenary
Meeting in South Africa where they decided that for Silver and Gold
badges you do not need extra altitude recorder and that GPS altitude
will be accepted. The difference with fully certified flight recorders
is that pilot should account 100 meter altitude margin for possible GPS
altitude error (for instance 1100 meter gain of height for Silver
badge). This new rule will be effective when new Sporting Code will be
published (expected October 1st 2012). |

| To keep the cost low consumer GPS logging
device is used. In cooperation with device manufacturer the devices
firmware was updated so that it would fit best glider pilot
requirements. On the other hand consumer device has some limitations.
Device is not IGC certified as
flight recorder and does not have engine sensor or pressure altitude sensor.
Because of that flights recorded with this device could not be used for
claiming national/world records or diamond badge. |
|
| Certify flyWithCE recorder in your

to do. The only thing is that NAC (National Air Sport Control) accepts
the device as appropriate device for Silver & Gold FAI badge flights.

countries or perform the tests by yourself. At the end NAC fills otu the
form which is then sent to IGC. |
