I'm changing from xcsoar to lk8000 due most versatile features for paragliding, but, i just discovered that lk8000 logs are not fai VALID.

Here in Brazil, the paragliding federation use the hours from logs at LEONARDO to allow pilots an upgrade at his pilot level.

if you did not upload valid logs at Brasil leonardo (http://xcbrasil.com.br) your flight hours are not computed, and, you will be stock at level 1 for ever. You cannot attend a competition, etc.

how it works well in xcsoar, and not on lk8000? There are plans to implement it? Its really deal break here in Brasil, making this change impossible.

Example of xcsoar valid logs. All this logs is from a friend of mine and was uploaded to xcbrasil using xcsoar .igc logs http://www.xcbrasil.com.br/tracks/world/alltimes/brand:all,cat:0,class:all,xctype:all,club:all,pilot:0_3357,takeoff:all

Thanks in advanced.

For gliders, we dont have any problem. For paragliders I lost the count of the times I have tried to accomplish competitions.
Now you say xcsoar's logs are accepted and ours are not. I have no idea why. We have TWO validation schemes, and when I tried to tell people that we should use only one, I got a bunch of complaints.
So I am not investigating any further. Beside, there is nothing we can do about it, except drop the plugin as I said months ago.
Not my business anymore.

Pablo,

I think what Paolo tried to say was "there will be NO more plugin", and XC leagues should accept LK8000 as they are right now, if not, he won't do any change.

Hi, we are now 2 years on and still can't use lk8000 igc in the U.K. Xc league.

Do you have any new plans to rectify this, it's the weak link in an otherwise great bit of software!

UK is the only place where the FAI validator is not accepted. Enough said.
