Gentlemen, The answer is already in the rule book, it's been there for a long time. AMA TD is not just supposed to be a duration task with a landing option. The tasks are Duration, Distance and Speed. No, I'm not confusing this with FAI F3b! Look in your rule book, someone, at some time included

Ok guys, Yes, I agree that the same guys usually win most of the time. However, while looking over the scores from varies contests it becomes apparent that even the best of flyers can be forced to fly in bad air. Sometimes, the good flyers even make a mistake in reading air or in their tactics.
