So congratulations to Airspeed for defending their title and taking gold for the 4th year in a row, what an amazing effort! Perris Fury kept them on their toes, scoring a mind boggling 59 points in round 4! In the FreeFly competition team Bodyflight also retained their gold medals, only narrowly beating Volare by 0.4 points. All of the scores are online on the competition website: http://www.worldchallenge.info/latest_news.html There is also more coverage and footage of the FS competition on NSL: http://www.skyleague.com/indexX.php I’d like to say a massive thank you very much to all of the teams and also to the generous sponsors who make the competition possible. I hope you will all come back for 2010!!

Attention all 4-way teams!!! Due to overwhelming demand we have decided to up the number of 4-way FS spaces to 50 teams this year. But these places are running out fast so get your applications in quickly. Free Flyers – there is still space in the Freefly competition in both the Professional and AA categories. In both disciplines teams who enter and pay the entry fee before the 1st of March the entry fee is only £200 per team. (£250 thereafter). You can enter your team online here: www.worldchallenge.info Thank you!

Hi there We recorded it and if I can figure out how to upload the video I will do. You can see some photos on the scrap heap website: http://www.channel4.com/science/microsites/S/scrapheap2008/challenges/dragsters/gallery_6_dragsters.html and also some photos from when they first filmed it back in 2007 on our site: http://www.bodyflight.co.uk/news/53/Bodyflight_at_the_Scrapheap!.html

It also makes it easier to remember the different people you have spoken to once you have finished interviews and are making decisions. Especially when your memory is as notoriously bad as mine when it comes to peoples names! LOL

Hi all Scores are on the competition site now. http://www.worldchallenge.info/latest_news.html It was a wonderful meet and we had such a great time running it. All of the teams were fantastic to watch…and what a nail biting finish! There are videos up on the NSL site of some of the rounds and the prize giving. Just want to say a big thank you to everyone who came and competed, and to the judges who did a brilliant job. Roll on 2009…

Hi all. We have had a team drop out of the FS competition and so we now have one space left for any 4-way team who wants it. Please drop us a line at the tunnel if you are interested (+44 845 200 2960) and ask for myself or Matt. There is also space still left in the FF competition, but we will be collecting music for the music rounds very shortly so if you are thinking of entering better to do it sooner rather than later. You can enter for the FF competition here: www.worldchallenge.info

Hmmm….just goes to show you should always get someone cleverer then you to check your press releases before you post them! Apologies if I have offended anyone. The release has now been corrected: http://www.responsesource.com/releases/rel_display.php?relid=iggii

The leisure centre is still under construction, but its coming on nicely! We hope it will be ready by the World Challenge although the pool might not be ready. The most recent pictures are on our website here: http://www.bodyflight.co.uk/news/ On the theme of the challenge, we are nearly at full capacity for 4-way teams, but with just a few spaces left. Enter now before it’s too late! There is still room in the Free Fly category though.
