Hi Tibor,

I'm flying competitions regularly here in Germany and I love the AAT auto-optimization of XCSoar. With my PDA (Asus A636 with WM5) I rarely ever have crashes. Since I usually fly with an unstable testing version there are some, but most are fixed a few days later. I agree though that remembering the task state would be a useful thing. Unfortunatly it's not as easy as it sounds ;)

Hi guys,

I would like to ask those of you that fly competitions if you are happy flying AAT tasks with XCSoar? During the two competitions I used XCSoar I came too soon too many times. Once I made a user error and a couple of time XCSoar crashed during the flight. I don't think that the crash itself is anything that bad and I can live with that. What makes XCSoar unusable for me for my AAT tasks is that the start time is lost when the program or the device crashes.

After experiencing the problem I was trying hard to notice/remember my start time and do my calculations manually. But my conclusion is that it's too difficult and distracting. How many people here fly AAT tasks on competitions? I find it surprising that hardly anybody asks for the functionality mentioned in subject.

The feature request in the bugtracker is here http://www.xcsoar.org/trac/ticket/1303 and here http://www.xcsoar.org/trac/ticket/1222 . Please let the developers know if you need this functionality. Thanks a lot.

Tibor
