Attention pilots and competition organizers!
There is a GPS week number rollover event on April 6/7 2019. After this date, some instruments might report the wrong date in an unpredictable manner.
In competitions this spring it might be necessary to have a temporary measure to allow IGC files with the wrong date when a pilot's instrument is shown to have that behaviour. After all, it is not an issue with identifying which task is being attempted. The time and positions should remain correct.
But any GPS chip designed over about ten years ago might fail. And it is possible that even newer instruments can be fitted with these older GPS chips.
