DONAC update

Nog minder dan een week tot het begin van de Dutch Open National Aerobatic Championship van 2011!

Het belooft weer een interessante wedstrijd te worden met 25 deelnemers in alle klassen van Beginners tot en met Advanced.  Er wordt gevlogen in elf verschillende vliegtuigen, waaronder maar liefst vier soorten Pitts.

Alle updates over de DONAC zullen vanaf nu ook geplaatst worden op de speciale website: http://www.vliegeniseenkunst.nl/donac/welkom.

Samenwerking VINK en KNVvL

Na een lang traject heeft VINK zich officieel aangesloten bij de KNVvL (Koninklijke Nederlandse Vereniging voor Luchtvaart). Hiermee is een lang gekoesterde wens tot samenwerking en erkenning van VINK als de Nederlandse Aerobatic vereniging in vervulling gegaan.

Het lidmaatschap loopt dan ook vanaf nu via de KNVvL afdeling Aerobatics. Leden hiervan zullen automatisch lid zijn van VINK. Daarnaast krijgen leden van de afdeling Aerobatics toegang tot faciliteiten, publicaties en trainingen die door de KNVvL worden georganiseerd.

Nog meer aerobatic training met Nicolas Ivanoff

Van Gerrit Nijs ontvingen we onderstaande informatie over vervolgtraining met Nicolas Ivanoff:

Dear all,

As you know, the Belgian Aerobatic Club (BAC) is organizing an aerobatic course with Red Bull Air Race pilot, Nicolas Ivanoff from the 6th until the 10th of April 2011 at the airport of Saint Hubert.
The course is basically full, however, we can still offer a couple of single days for those of you who might be interested.
Dates are: 6, 7, and 10th of April.
Price is 150€ per day per person, plus food and accommodation for Nicolas, but this last one is shared by the participants and adds only a small cost to the course.
Let me know as soon as possible if you're interested in one or all of these days.
A second course with Nicolas is being organized and this from the 13th until the 16th of June 2011 at the airport of Saint Hubert (just ahead of the Belgian Aerobatic competition).
In case you're interested in this course then let me know as soon as possible.
Information is also available on the BAC website.

Best regards,

Gerrit Nijs

Training met Nicolas Ivanoff

De Belgische aerobatic vereniging organiseert van 6 t/m 10 april een trainingskamp met instructie van Unlimited en Red Bull Air Race vlieger Nicolas Ivanoff. VINK leden kunnen hier ook aan deelnemen.

The first aerobatic course with Nicolas Ivanoff at the airport of Saint Hubert is being organized.
Dates are from the 6th until the 10th of April 2011 with a possibility to extend 2 days before, so from the 4th until the 10th if enough people participate in the course.
Preference will be given to pilots that participate the full 5 days in the course, but if you'd like to reserve only a couple of days, or even only one day, then we will try to accommodate.
Nicolas still has to inform me about the exact pricing but he told me that he will align his prices on those of Catherine Maunoury, meaning 150€ per person per day, plus food and accommodation.
At this point, if you don't know yet whether you will be able to participate these days, but would like to, then let me know so I can make an estimate of the pilots that will participate, however, if you want to reserve your slot already now and be sure about your participation in this course, then let me know and transfer the money to my account:

2011 Aerobatic competition

Lelystad Airport (EHLE) will once again be the setting of the Dutch Open National Aerobatic Championship, held september 9 to 11. Pilots will be competing for several awards and of course the title of Dutch Aerobatic Champion.

All information is available on the official DONAC website.

Besides the DONAC we'd like to point out two other competitions of special interest to Benelux pilots. First, the Belgian Open National Aerobatic Championship, held june 17 to 19 at Saint Hubert airport (EBSH).

Second, the Championnat de France, held august 24 to 28 at Amiens, France (LFAY). Classes flown are Espoir, Promotion and National 2, which provides an excellent preparation for anybody interested in competing at the DONAC (an inverted fuel system is required for all classes mentioned).

Hope to see you at the competitions!
