ltdiver 3 #1 January 29, 2004 Quote 1. 3rd World Air Games 2005 Cancelled During its meeting held on 26 and 27 January in Lausanne, the FAI Executive Board decided, with regret, not to continue with the selection procedure for the organisation of World Air Games in 2005. The two final bidders, Malaysia and Poland, have been informed of this decision. The Board judged that insufficient time remained available between now and the target date in mid-2005 to solve the various organisational problems that had been identified. This decision did not in any way denote a lack of confidence in the two bidding countries. Both have been thanked and congratulated for all the work they put into their candidacies, and invited to consider submitting bids for events in future years. The FAI Board looks forward to launching a new invitation to bid as soon as the necessary consultations and evaluations amongst the different Commissions within FAI have been successfully completed. Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
velo90 0 #2 January 30, 2004 After read this I thought maybe the people in Poland and Malaysia would be rather pissed. They spent time and money preparing bids and then have the rug pulled out from under their feet Or do they see it differently? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
