Neile Steenkamp, one of the pillars in Bloemfontein Gliding Club,
became a father during the South African Nationals. As a result, he did
not make it to take part in the Nationals this year, or to take some
good photos. Fortunately, he did think about the Webby in East Africa,
who is always begging for new photos....

The South African National Gliding Championships is currently being held
in Bloemfontein at the Tempe airport. Also known as the Dustdevil 2005/6
and hosted by the Bloemfontein Gliding Club, this year's Nationals
attracted 22 international competitors and has a record entry of close to
50. Here is a
link to the National Gliding Championships website. The
media forms a big part in creating an awareness about gliding. Being
featured on National television or in newspaper articles does a lot for
the sport. On 27 and 28 Dec, SABC news had two inserts about the club. As
a result there was a surge of searches on several search engines and hits
on this website. Here are the two videos in Realmedia
format: (Video clips are copyrighted by SABC)

You may have noticed that the website was down due to a bandwidth
overload. The reason being that we experienced much more International
Traffic on the site due to the Nationals that starts on 26 December. To
solve this problem, we moved to a new host, called Kalemanzi GFX who
will supply the needed web space and bandwidth to support our website.
The Photo Gallery will also be down for a while as we are working on it.
We apologise for any frustrations on your side as a result of us
exceeding our bandwidth and being off line. The Bloemfontein Gliding
Club website is getting bigger and better, and we promise to bring you
a fast and informative website in the future.
Greetings
The Webby
