================

Dear Delegates and Friends,

Condor competitions are a very powerful training tool for real-world gliding pilots. The number of competition pilots that take part in virtual contests seeking tactical training, familiarization with particular sites (mountain flying) and enhance flight computer proficiency is continuously growing. Since 2015 FBVV the Brazilian Gliding Federation had given thoughts about including a virtual championship in its annual competition calendar. The needed push came when attending to FAI Vice President Alvaro Orleans Borbon speech during the Second Pan American Gliding Championship in Argentina (December 2017). He told us that a virtual gliding championship organized by FAI was one of his wishful projects.

We decided to give it a try in Brazil. There is a strong virtual gliding community in Brazil and they were very enthusiastic about the project since the start. Rene Queiroz, Eduardo Campolina, Paulo Menezes and Cristiano Conrado among others helped a lot FBVV in creating the rules and calendar for the championship. Nonetheless a Brazilian Championship it was decided to open the competition to virtual pilots from all countries. Almost every week there were racing or AAT tasks totaling 20 competitions.

Only sceneries from Brazilian real-world flying sites were used for the tasks. 72 virtual pilots from 16 countries participated, and real-world pilots also took part in the competition. The Championship was located in the Condor Club (http://www.condor-club.eu/comp/show/0/?id=296 ).

The champion turned out to be Brian Camps from Argentina and the Prize Award Giving happened together with the 60° Brazilian Gliding Championship (real championship) on September 29th in Bebedouro (photos). The Virtual Gliding Champions besides the trophies were gifted with flights in an ASK 21. They were very enthusiastic about the flights.

In 2019 we are willing to make the virtual championship bigger giving it a Pan American status. We are asking for the support of the IGC delegates to turn this virtual contest an official FAI event and inviting all of you to replicate the initiative on your own countries. It generates very needed publicity and Divulgation for our sport, besides being a powerful training tool and a way to bring much needed young new pilots to gliding.

FBVV is very proud of pioneering this effort and our next step is to stimulate most of the Brazilian gliding clubs to build flight simulators that will serve as primary flight instruction tools and also for competing in virtual contests. So far we have already two clubs with their simulators working: Aeroclube de Voo a Vela CTA and Aeroclube de Tatuí.

Kind Regards,

Valéria Caselato

President of Brazilian Gliding Federation

IGC Delegate of Brazil
