2005 Turnpoints

The 2005 ASA contest series turnpoint database contains numerous changes from the 2004 database: the coordinates for landable turnpoints have been adjusted to be precisely over the turnpoint.

(If you fly with the 2004 database, you will be fine as long as you overfly the field/runway of one of the modified TPs. But be careful on your start: the locations of the Turf and Estrella TPs changed as well -- you want to "leave" the new cylinder, not the old one!)

For current files please visit John Leibacher's Worldwide Soaring Turnpoint Exchange. You can go straight to ASA's page here.

(NEW April 2005) A database of LANDABLE turnpoints (improved strips and airports) developed by Ted Wagner from various databases for the southwest United States can be found here (Cambridge format). (Unofficial! Use at your own risk!!!)

For a zip file with all of the files ready for use with various instruments, click here (578kb).

A Microsoft Excel spreadsheet with links to TerraServer and Maricopa County GIS aerial photos. Very useful for getting to know what the landable turnpoints look like!
