Macca,
I made both UK juniors films, with a few others, before moving here. You can use the movie all you like for those purposes. I assume that the bar has the rights to play music publicly. If so, they can play the soundtrack too.

What Giles Taylor and myself are looking for is good footage to show on the big Screen at the beach hotel Byron Bay - we had thought of UK junoirs VID and have spoken to Peter Newport and he is OK using his footage. There are about 200 to 300 different tourists every night in beach hotel and at present they show snowboarding surfing paragliding etc on the big screen. Delvene Cornell (Delanie) picks what goes on screen and it must be good quality without the need foer sound copywrite clearance and be non stop action. The hotel is soon to change hands but am sure we can still get it up there. It should benifit all gliding movement. I would like 30min of non stop action DVD and I know nothing about DVDs and videos so any help appreciated We may get something out of Channel 9 Brisbane with their recent day here doing a show.......................Ian McPhee----- Original Message -----From: Stuart & Kerri FERGUSONSent: Wednesday, June 20, 2007 1:48 PMSubject: [Aus-soaring] Promoting GlidingThe following extract from Daves post sounds very encouraging, and I do not doubt a word of it.
Entries will be limited to 60 gliders. As Lake Keepit is a very popular site, with great variety, (and friendly people) we expect a full field. We were oversubscribed last time and unfortunately had to turn away some late entries. I suggest you enter early to avoid disappointment.
What it does say to me is, those of us involved with the sport are very enthusiastic about it and the popularity of events like this, the Narromine Cup etc reinforce this view. On the other side of the coin we have the discussions about the demise of gliding due to the age profile of the majority of those taking part and the lack of new members.
I know the GFA are spending money talking about the problem, gathering statistics and holding meetings, but we are not seeing the required outcome which is increased membership numbers, this should be the number one KPI for this project.
Gliding is a challenge, it is exciting, and it is Hi-tech, but is that how the public perceive it? Most of the public and a majority of GA pilots think that gliding is going round in circles within gliding distance of the local airfield on a Sunday afternoon, why? Because that is all they see us doing. What I believe needs to be done is make the sport more visible and the way to do this is via the electronic media. The GFA (because this what they need to do) need to have produced short video documentaries that would be suitable for TV and other visual electronic media 5 minute filers, 30 and 60 minute sport documentaries similar to those seen on Fox Sport etc based round some of our big events, JoeyGlide is a prime target for such an activity. If they can make some of the boring activities I have seem made look interesting in these productions just imagine what could be done with gliding.
Are we up to the challenge?

Subject: [Aus-soaring] NSWGA Comps at Lake Keepit in November;
Entries are coming in for the NSW State competition being held at Lake Keepit from Sat Nov 10th thru Sat Nov 17th. Entry forms and Local Rules are listed on our website www.keepitsoaring.com. (Note new website address).
If you're interested I suggest you make early arrangements as we expect a good crowd at this event.
Both multiclass competitions (std, 15m, 18m and open) and club class are being catered for. Club class comps at State level are a great way for less experienced Club pilots to try comp flying. Club class also gives those with older gliders a chance. Club class tasks will all be Assigned Area Tasks. We intend to set a mixture of fixed tasks and AAT for multiclasses.
In the interests of safety, carriage of a working Flarm or equivalent proximity warning device will be mandatory. Fitting Flarm units to your glider will be your responsibility - Lake Keepit Club will not be providing extra Flarms for competitors. Nigel Andrews at RF Developments http://www.rf-developments.com/page008.html supplies Flarm units in Australia.
Accommodation - Onsite cabins and beds will be reserved for workers in the comp and you should make your own accommodation arrangements. Camping at the airfield is available - bring long electrical leads. Otherwise the Lake Keepit Caravan Park is holding accommodation for the Gliding Club - be sure to mention you are part of the Comp when requesting bookings. http://www.stateparks.nsw.gov.au/keepit.html (Its filling fast) There is also the NSW State Sport & Recreation Centre nearby http://www.dsr.nsw.gov.au/lakekeepit/index.asp. Nearest motels are at Manilla and Gunnedah approx half hour drive away.
Entries will be limited to 60 gliders. As Lake Keepit is a very popular site, with great variety, (and friendly people) we expect a full field. We were oversubcribed last time and unfortunately had to turn away some late entries. I suggest you enter early to avoid disappointment.
We'll look forward to seeing you in November.
