ShowCondorIGC 2.62b for C2 updated 1547

Condor 2 – Condor Soaring. Condor 2 Standard version including 7 gliders, 4 towplanes and Slovenia landscape. The included gliders are. Standard Cirrus. I am wondering what people think about using the Condor simulator to improve gliding and soaring decision making - things like when to turn back given lift, weather, continuing to exploit lift along a ridge, and so on. Does the simulator present enough varied challenges to help with this sort of thing which will transfer to real soaring.

Update SCI 2.62 has some minor fixes and also added all new gliders polars (in Datas folder) up to Hangar Update 11 + SCI 2.62 is able to show penalty zones, groundlevel height and height above ground (AGL).

Update SCI 2.61 has 2 new features:
1. Consideration of motorgliders (inclusive scoring of AATs)
2. Thanks to Marc Till (Bre901): Conversion of FTR files to IGC file

The program ShowCondorIGC (SCI) supports scoring. It can load and present datas from CSV & IGC files. In case of IGC files it can filter the flightplans and check the validity (with valicon.dll from Uros). It can also calculate the points. The calculation bases upon FAI Sporting Code Annex A.

Condor Flight Simulator

The Condor flight simulator is glider specific software that emulates the training and cross country environments of sailplanes.

Along with the help of a glider instructor versed in Condor, your glider training can be supplemented by exploiting the capabilities of Condor. Real emergencies can be practiced and the action can be frozen to discuss an important issue.

Condor is used by many around the world to race each other in realistic cross country soaring competitions.
