TO the National Aero Clubs/Associations and European Air Sports Unions/Federations, Members of Europe Air Sports, and FAI.
URGENT URGENT URGENT
dear Members,
As agreed at the General Meeting in Cambridge, 18 April 2004, the Board has prepared an advertisement to recruit a professional manager in the staff of Europe Air Sports, with the title of PROGRAMME MANAGER.
Attached is the advertisement.
You are kindly, but urgently requested to give this advertisement a wide distribution, by e-mail, website, letter, bulletin and magazine, in the quickest way you can do.
In view of the timescale involved it will not be possible to use regular aviation magazines or press. We have to rely on our own network.
An extensive brief about this function has been made and is available for every applicant who is seriously interested. If you, for your own information, would be interested to receive this document, please let me know and I will send it to you by return.
NOTE: another subject, it had been agreed that the Board would send a proposal for the budget 2005 around mid May (and subsequently extended to end of May).
The budget has been drafted, however the presentation takes some more time than expected and we need a couple of days extra. The intention is now to send the budget at the latest this coming weekend.
Best
regards,
Harry Schoevers,
secretary-general Europe Air Sports
