  • Der Online Contest (Abkürzung: OLC) ist ein dezentraler Breitensport-Wettbewerb im Flugsport, der seit 1999 besteht. Wettbewerbsteilnehmer absolvieren Streckenflüge in den Sparten Segelflug, Hängegleiten, Gleitschirmfliegen oder mit Modellsegelflugzeugen. Piloten laden nach der Landung den GNSS-Track Log und das Barogramm ihres Fluges auf die OLC-Webseite, wo die Flüge in die nationale oder internationale Wertung eingehen – zum Beispiel um den weitesten oder schnellsten Flug.

  • The aerokurier Online Contest (OLC), a worldwide decentralized soaring competition for glider, hang glider, and paraglider pilots. The OLC is operated by Segelflugszene Gemeinnützige GmbH, a German not-for-profit founded in 2000. "Segelflugszene" translates as "gliding scene" in English. Glider pilots upload secure log files from GNSS Flight Recorders to the OLC web site, and the server automatically scores their flight performance. Scores are adjusted by a handicap factor to allow for performance differences between different glider makes and models. The scores are summarized and displayed by airfield, club, region, country, and continent, along with the overall world standings. The handicap factor, and the scoring breakdowns, allow pilots to compete against one another on any level, from local to international. The competition runs for a full year beginning and ending in early October. There is an annual OLC Symposium and award ceremony in late October each year in Gersfeld Germany, near the Wasserkuppe. Over 12000 pilots participated in the OLC worldwide in 2006. (en)
