Hello everybody,

I am new to competition flying and wonder if someone can shed some light on the major differences between F3F and F3B ships. I have tried ( may be not hard enough ) to search for internet resouces on the subject but all I could find were rules and task descriptions.
Looking at the rules, both are speed tasks.

F3B = official, thermal soaring, bring your own winch (tested for
      strict compliance to the rules)
F3F = provisional, slope soaring, contest supplied supplied winch

I've never flown in any contest, but I suspect F3F is faster with
less worries about finding lift since it is flown on a slope.
