Event News 2006

Cancellation of the Eliminator.
In previous years we have been inundated with applications for Sportsman places, to the extent that we had to close entry within 2 days of the Entry Forms being available. In order to avoid having to turn people away we decided that an Eliminator 2006 would be a great idea, because only those really keen would apply in view of the extra time and effort in actually competing at 3D Masters. Our usual pre-registration strategy showed 80+ pilots from around the World interested, so we proceeded. In fact, we received just enough applications to fill the available places, so the Eliminator was unnecessary, and so it has been cancelled. All those who were prepared to spend the extra time and effort (most from Overseas) have been rewarded with a place in the Sportsmans 3D Masters 2006.
We do still have some places available on a first-come, first-served basis- only fully completed forms with fee can be accepted.

2006 Set Manoeuvres
3D Masters has introduced 14 new Set Manoeuvres for 2006, some of them never before performed in Public.
