CIVL Plenary - an official short report
... No hang gliding worlds ...
http://www.fai.org/hang_gliding/node/518
No bids were received for the 2009 World Hang Gliding
Championship, and the Plenary agreed that the CIVL Bureau would seek an
organiser prepared to make a suitable bid.
So no one wants to put on a Worlds in 2008 or 2009 for hang
gliding, whether rigid or flex wing. I wonder why! Could it be that the meets
lose money for the organizers and that it is very painful dealing with CIVL?
Perhaps.
There will be a 2007 pre-Europeans (flex wing) in Greifenburg, and a Europeans
there in 2008. (http://events.fai.org/hgpg/civl-calendar.asp).
Wolfgang seems to do whatever CIVL officials tell him to do.
The CIVL Bureau met the day before the Plenary and their minutes can be found
here:

boring. http://OzReport.com/1171636244
