The deadline for the submission of rules proposals for the 2008 contest season has now passed. Various CIVA member countries have submitted rules proposals as well as papers to initiate discussion on new competition formats. In addition, plans are already underway for the 2009 World Air Games in Turin, Italy and rules for this event will be discussed at Sub-Committee and the CIVA plenary in October in Vilnius, Lithuania. The proposals are available for download at www.fai.org/aerobatics/documents/proposals
