Dear Airshow folk                                                    1 November 2011

We are pleased to announce that at the AGM on 22 October 2011,             
Mr Rikus Erasmus was re-elected to the ASSA Board as Chairman,
Lt. Col Hose Hanekom as Vice Chairman, Charles Higgins – Treasurer,
Lee Holmes – Corporate, Des Barker – International Liaison and
Louise Hofmeyr – Administrator

Other Board Members will be co-opted in due course as required.

We are planning to host 4 seminars during 2012 which will cover topics related to safety matters, display pilots, event organisers and Airshow vendors.

To align South Africa with global trends, the standards of participants and the operational organisation will be reviewed constantly. I.e. Accreditation of display pilots is mandatory, safety officer standards, airfield location suitability for certain acts etc.     Participants will be asked to produce proof of ASSA membership prior to their display. More Airshows will have Class C airspace to  host any form of display and will be assigned to ATNS traffic controllers.

Renegade or Rogue elements (Organisers, officials or pilots) will not be accommodated in the industry Internationally and locally. Globally the past year’s accident/incident  figures were alarming.
Irrespective of the discipline you represent it remains your duty to ensure a safe environment to promote this industry to the public.

The 2011’s Airshows were world class material and we look forward to your co-operation to achieve a great Airshow year in 2012 and to inspire more young blood on to the air show circuit.

We thank each one of you involved including our very valuable public for your support.       SEE YOU AT THE NEXT SHOW!!!!!


Kind regards

Louise HOFMEYR
ASSA Administration
