Hui, Tibor
I've flown a couple of AAT in Klix 2011 and won 3rd place on DD. My
friend flow FF and won 2nd place. We flew with XC 6.09.
I had no bugs or crashes at all, but in comparison to WinPilot (which
was used parallel on flight), XC is calculating a little bit to
pessimistic,
that indeed leads to fly slower - not faster ..??
SoI can't give you a recommendation for the use of XC in AAT, this,
because I don know your settings (bugs, safety heights, and so on ..)
One thing I mentioned earlier before - and in my opinion this would be
nice to have -, is, to move the AAT-targets within the main screen, this
to avoid to much trouble during flight (: clicking nav - nav - targret
- siwth to the target you wanna manipulate - move target - see how time
in/decreases clicking back to main screen)
WP, Strepla, and I guess SeeYou(?) all are doing it on main screen ...
A much better solution, making the "target window" unneccesary because I
got a special set of Info Boxes called AAT (that could come up allone,.
when Type of task is set to AAT .. perhaps worth a ticket ?? ...) Too
much hazzle with clicking around ..
This XC - behaviour is not much "handy" I think, especially for single
pilots - we flow Duo and Dg1000 so there were no probs at all with
navigation during AAt..
To your special problem:
Restarting XC with a lost start time is indeed a bad thing that should
be fixed/solved somehow.
I didn't happen to me, so I didn't have the need to have this feature -
but- you're completely right - it should be done ..

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
