13th World Precision Championships
From : Jan Hanekom Dear Sirs, I do not see any news with regards to the 13th World Precision Flying Championships to be held later this month in New Zealand. Is it possible to get daily updates once the event is running ? Looking forward to your reply, Jan HanekomCommittee Member of SAPFA (South African Power Plying Association) Editor's Note: The Championship was cancelled. Fresh dates will be notified and circulated by the FAI. Please see the FAI site: http://www.fai.org Reply from President, FAI International Aerobatic Commission Atul, Thanks for your message. The Australian leg of the World Grand Prix is cancelled. I have attached a copy of the Preliminary Schedule for the 2nd series of the FAI World Grand Prix of Aerobatics for your use and follow up. It appears that our first competition this year will not be until July and it remains to be confirmed. I enjoyed the February issue --- particularly Karen Diamond's article, as I was there -- and the format and presentation of the magazine is very clean and easy to read. With best regards,Michael R. Heuer President of CIVA

How airplanes fly
From : Brian Countryman Great article. Very refreshing to see that some writers still know how to use the subjunctive of the verb "to be." Thanks for a good read. - grammar police.P.S. "When a plane passes overhead the formally still air ends up with a downward velocity." I believe "formerly" was intended.
