Dear Hobbyists,

Its that time of the year again when I used to get grossly involved with Wings India team in planning "Aamby Valley International Aeromodeller's Meet" every year, since last 7 years. Unfortunately, this year, organizers have decided to take a break. So sad new is, no Aamby Valley this year Sad...or even if Wings India Meet happens, it may be on a very small scale and it will not be in Aamby...so no witnessing world class flying, no interactions with renowned international flyers, no peek at the setup and more importantly, no learning, atleast for me.

Now the good thing is, I am very happy to announce that HFAA (HI- FLYERS Aeromodeller’s Association ), a very prominent club in Surat, Gujarat, has organized "H.F.A.A. Aeromodelling Meet 2012" at CK Pithawalla college of Engineering near Surat, Gujarat, India. The meet is scheduled from 2nd until 5th of February' 2012. As the official invite is yet to come and announcements yet to be made on website, below are few very exciting activities that will happen in the said meet;

1. Its focused more on the giving recognition to national flyers than international one. There will be competitions in all the categories for various flying levels like novice, intermediate and expert. There will be a fair system of judging where known aeromodellers from around the country have volunteered. If I am not mistaken, this will be one of its kind competition happening in India.
2. organizers are more poised to conduct the meet for the "Masses" rather than for the "Class".
3. There are expected international participation but it will be very very limited.
4. There will be night flying and maybe night flying competition also.
5. A separate category for small electrics, spads and experimental models.
6. there will spaces provided for local hobby shops to put up their stalls.
7. the meet is open for localites to come and witness. hence, loads of local spectators expected.

this and a lot more....a bit late announcement though, but this meet is sure to be a turn on and probably a stepping stone for propelling local competitions in our country.

More details about the meet will be available soon. As and when I get any update, I will keep it posted.

On behalf of the organizers, I request all the hobbyists to be a part of this exciting and most promising event ever.

Wasi

Great going Wasi.  Thumbs Up Beautiful beginning. Team Indore should be there if all works out. When would the competition format be out? Would it be a fair competition, or just a lot of fun flying. If it is what I have understood from your post, I must say  Hats Off to the organizers for doing what they are doing for the betterment of the hobby.
Waiting impatiently for further details. I hope the registration charges are not too high, considering that a lot of new comers would be interested in the competition.

Doc,

thankyou so much for those encouraging words but if it hadn't been you, the competition sequence would not have come in effect...thank you so much for your time and efforts....it will be great to have you and your team with us....and you please come prepare, u know for what....Smiley

so far "meet" and "competition" is concerned, lets keep it as meet only....its for ppl who will participate probably not to compete, but more importantly, to make it a success....in the true spirit of the hobby sir....hope u buy my point here....!!!

will keep troubling you so far this meet goes....pls dont mind...

WOW, Fabulous initiative. The schedule looks great and there's something for every one.
When do the registrations open?
Hope the online registration link becomes functional soon.
Does the 1st person registering get some added incentive?   Grin Grin Grin

Wasi, You are such a darling.

Sounds so much better.

Guys what do u say now, 3 days of hard core competition for any and everyone, after nearly a gap of 30 yrs (I hear that such kind of National level competitions used to be held way back in the '80's). I hope the online registrations start soon so that everyone can register at the earliest.

I believe that this event would be a forerunner for a National circuit of competitive flying in the years to come and maybe sometime soon we would have some talented flyers going for International events. This event being open to all classes of flyers and also being one which would have a fair judging pattern, would be a great event to be in.

Hoping to see some inputs from the senior members on the forum.
Regards
Doc

Jagfab, any event without your voice and without ur twin engines seems so dry. Missed hearing ur voice the last time we were in Aamby. Can't miss it again. The mantle to compere will always be with you. I don't know who the 3 monkeys are but at the end of the day, the 3 monkeys are always correct.  Grin Grin Giggle Giggle
