Worldwide Soaring Turnpoint Exchange

Unofficial Coordinates for the Chicago Glider / Hinckley, Illinois Control Points


Contest: Region 7

Courtesy of Ron Ridenour
Via John Cochrane ( john.cochrane(at)gsb.uchicago.edu )
Dated: August 7 1999
Magnetic Variation: 2.5W
Time zone: US/Central, summer offset from GMT is -5:00 and in winter it is -6:00.

The primary specification of the waypoint coordinates is degrees and decimal minutes


These are based on John Ackerman's turnpoints for Whiteside county, 24 April 1998, with extra turnpoints by Ron and Neil Ridenour 8/4/99. All turnpoints are the indicated ends of the runways, not the center of the airport as given in the airport database and used in the Northern Illinois contest
Both Chicago Glider and Hinckley have the attributes A (Airport) T (Turnpoint) S (Start) F (Finish) H (Home), or its translation to the codes of other GPS systems. Your GPS may have trouble with two turnpoints with the SFH attributes. If so, modify the database so that only Chicago Glider has the SFH attribute on the first and last weekend, and only Hinckley on labor day weekend.
