Davis Straub, who chairs the USHGA Competitions Committee, has recently published an article in his Oz Report (CIVL Screws US Pilots, Vol 10, Number 52) which follows his usual anti-CIVL agenda but which gives a very one-sided and inaccurate picture of the unfortunate situation – unfortunate that is for the pilots involved.

Revamping, Part 2
Wednesday, 15 February 2006 16:30
At this time, the revamping of our web site is in its second phase. A new architecture and new texts are in place. We wanted to accomplished that before the Lausanne Plenary. We did, but had no time to check that each text was updated, that nothing was missing. Then the Plenary made new modifications to our regulations. So updating each page is now our top priority. 2006 Euro PG Local Regulations
