FAI World Air Sports Challenge
Thanks to Kris Ericksen. I haven't figured out exactly what is
going on
here:
World's largest multi-air sport event launched
The largest multi-air sport championship to ever be held in one location was
today (29 November) launched at New Zealand’s Parliament with the promise of
groundbreaking media technology and a new era in spectator sports.
The FAI World Air Sports Challenge incorporating the FAI World Series Gliding
Finals will take place in Wanaka on 27-28 December 2007. The event will feature
elite pilots from around the world representing all of the official Fédération
Aéronautique International (FAI) sports including gliding, hang gliding,
paragliding, fixed-wing aerobatics, helicopters and parachuting.
Designed for global TV and spectators, the event will be filmed using the latest
Sony High Definition technologies together with real time graphics by Animation
Research Ltd and specially designed in-cockpit camera systems. These images will
then be broadcast live to spectators on the ground on a giant screen as well as
computers around the world through a specially developed live Internet streaming
platform.
