Wellington Aero Club from AeroHub by Graeme | Hello, The Annual Awards Dinner, on Saturday night, was a great success, capped by catching the final moments of the All Whites stunning win. Guest Speaker was Willie Sage who provided a captivating and entertaining expose on strip flying including waterborne-to-beach landings etc. He then offered up for auction, a Strip/Mountain Flying Training package, including travel to and from Blenheim, with the proceeds going towards our upcoming 80th Jubilee Scholarship promotion (more on that soon). Chris Hoffman topped the bidding but, because he is presently focusing on his CPL, on-sold the package, worth $2000, to Rodney Maas. Fantastic effort by all who entered into the auction with gusto. Attached is the list of the WAC Award winners for 2009. Congratulations to all. Cheers, Tony - WAC Awards 2009
