This year’s Coupe Europa will be held on December 3rd., starting at 10 a.m. at Middle Wallop, with a guarantee of no full-size aircraft movements that day by the Army flying club.

The F1G event for the Aeromodeller Trophy, to the FAI rules, of course, will be one of 12 international contests counting for the new Euro Challenge, organised by the Italian AGO Torino club and running till September 2007. Vintage Coupe d’Hiver for the AAA Cup, will be flown to the builder of the model rule if still applicable then.

There will be awards for top junior and lady competitors and national teams will compete for the Flitehook Europa Trophy, with the three top-scoring F1G flyers from each nation making up its team. Organisation will again be in the hands of Croydon & DMAC.

Entry - £7 (10 Euro) per class or £10 (15 Euro) for two classes. Pre-entry fees will be £5 (8 Euro) per class, or £8 (12 Euro) for two. Fees for pre-entered overseas flyers can be paid on the field. An indoor prizegiving with refreshments is planned.

The Museum of Army Flying makes an admission charge at the gate, with non-flying family members free. Those not competing in the contests will be most welcome to use the airfield for trimming and the organisers will make a small token charge for this.
