Mail Suggestion for Publishing Certified Records
From : Ing. José Peña Buenrostro

Dear Atul,

If it is authorized by FAI, you could advise us how to promote something for advertising, among manufacturer's representatives and/or airliners.

Now we have our own Federation newsletter sent to many of them (It is not a commercial publication but it will make sense to promote Airsports Ads) By the way, We have got a lot of sports info from Airsports as we never could when the Mag used to arrive 3 or 4 months later.

Well, I am just thinking and writting. Maybe...

Best regards.

Mail 1999 Microlight Pacific Expedition
From : Matthew Liknaitzky

Hello Ed,

Just inquiring as to whether you are aware of the 1999 Microlight Pacific Expedition?

Mike Blyth (previous microlight World Champ) and Olivier Aubert are busy topping their previous World Record (1995 Cape to Cape Expedition - 21 000km) by flying the entire Pacific Rim (45 000km).

Visit their site at www.pacific-expedition.com

Let me know if you need any more info.

Regards,


Matthew

Mail Balloon Information
From : Dustin Block

Hi,

My name is Dustin Block, I'm an American newspaper reporter doing a story about a local resident who hopes to enter an around the world balloon race.

Curt Johnson, an executive with SC Johnson Wax, has a "top secret" balloon design that he says is better than the Brietling balloon that made it around the world.

I'm looking for another source or two to flush out my story on Johnson and his mystery balloon. Do you have any ideas?

Also, when I was wondering if you would be interested in publishing an article on Johnson in your magazine or on the Web site. Bias aside, I think his story is a compelling look into the sport.

Looking forward to your response,


Dustin
