Highlights from this year’s Bureau Meeting in October, in Iceland include:
• Agreement that Italy will hold the Women’s World Hang Gliding class 1, World Hang Gliding Class 5 and possibly Class 2 Championships combined in July 2008.
• Agreement that CIVL will run a trial World Online XC Competition in 2008.
• Significant progress in the new FS flight scoring and verification system. Beta version should be available before the end of the year.
• World Air Games – promising to be a highly prestigious event in Turin in 2009.
A word of warning – the 1st Pan American Paragliding Championship, scheduled for March 2008, could be in jeopardy if Brazil does not pay its FAI membership fee.
