The Ingo Renner Cup update
Australian pilots who post their flights on weglide.org are automatically scored for the Ingo Renner Cup. The scoring period is from 1 October to 30 September. At the end of the season, the combined score of the top three flights of each pilot will determine the ranking.
It is possible that there will be changes to the rankings in each class before 30 September. The list to the right on this page notes the current standings, and the entries in red are changes and additions since our last update in January.
