MAAA Wingspan - Quarterly Magazine

4 / 17

We also support pilots who want to take flying
to new heights and compete at a state, national
and international level.
Aussie pilots did well at championships around
the world this year.
The World Air Games were recently conducted
in Dubai and our own Bruce deChastel teamed
with his wife Linda to take out the FAI Gold
Medal in the Aeromodelling F3T Pylon Racing
event. A great achievement for Bruce and
Linda, and an indication that Aeromodelling in
Australia is alive and well.
Every state has a representative on the MAAA
and in this edition we look at how your views
are represented at the table. We also speak to
Joan McIntyre a renowned FAI F2B (Aerobatic
Control Line) judge and learn more about
families taking part in the sport and events
across the country.
The MAAA are always keen to hear if you have
any story ideas for Wingspan, please contact
.
Until next time, have a fun, safe flight.
