Congratulations Dave for the rock solid effort and excellent skill used to secure one of the 3 spots on Team Canada's Precision Aerobatics Team, Well Done! The event took place this year in Argentina from November 8th to 18th. It was a huge success, Dave performed well and some guy named Quique did alright too. Congrats and thanks to Kelly, Mark and Robyn for their support of Team Canada's performance at the 2007 World F3A Championships!

Almost as exciting as VRCMS's own Dave Reaville's performance at the worlds, was Quique Somenzini's overall win of the Championship! Since QQ is a good friend of the Victoria Club and he has been so generous to our fundraising air show efforts, it makes it a very special win! He also did it in his home country in front of all of his family and friends!

After returning to the USA, Quique graciously devoted a day to answering questions from anyone that logged on to the Flying Giants Community website forum. During this discussion Victoria and our Air Show were brought up and Quique had this to say about Victoria:

"Dear Friends, Thank you ver much for your post. My thanks is to you for invite me for the last two years to be part of such an important airshow. Victoria is a beatiful town amazing views. The show is run very professionally and incredible support from the city, the modellers, the press and everyone on that area!. The group lead by Mike, Jack and this year Mark (Pedro) do an incredible job and I am very happy to be part of the show.

Thank you guys and I will see you in August at Victoria!"

Quique
