SCAT Annual News
----------------

We are still trying to find out the exact date of the shooting event
that has conflicted with the SCAT Annual the last two years. If it is
on the date we have chosen [7 and 8 March] we are planning
on moving the Annual to the following weekend.

In addition we have held a number of AMA events some
of which have been poorly supported. Because this years event will
be an America's Cup Contest we are considering eliminating some of
the AMA events that were not well supported.
We would retain Catapult and HL glider and p-30.

We would have the 6 FAI events.

.. any comments on this please ?
