Michael R. Heuer – President of CIVA.

- What do you think about the organization of this Championship?

M.H: Well, there’ve been seven Advanced World Aerobatic Championships now and I’ve attended all of them and this, so far, is the best organized we’ve ever had. Everything is in place, there’s been a lot of thought and planning and the international jury and the officials of the Aerobatics Commission could not be more happy.

- Do you have any favourites? Who do you think can be the winner?

M.H. Well, of course, since I’m serving here as a president to the jury I can’t have any favourites. The only thing I can hope for and work for is that there’s good judging which I think we have here. We have an excellent panel of judges. And that they will do their work and the best pilot will win. Whoever.

- What memories connected with Poland, with Radom will you have?

M.H. I will have memories of very friendly, wonderful people. I will never forget the parade we had in Radom at that first day. And when we came down the street and all of the people were waving and clapping. And applause. And that I will never forget. The welcome we got in Poland when we arrived.

A very modest Champion

Interview with Petr Biskup, individual and team Aerobatic World Champion.

- Do you realize that you are regarded as the favorite to win the gold medal? Your
achievements are simply obliging!

- Petr Biskup: I have logged only 5 hours in SU-29. I changed from ZLIN-50 and now I have to get acquainted with SU-29’s capabilities. This year, I am here to watch the other competitors’ performance, and possibly, win something in a
year, or let’s say two years time.

- Having the possibility to watch your mates at training, have you spotted a kind of your successor, a candidate for the World Champion?

P.B. As usual, the favorites are mainly Americans, Russians and the French, however, there are many new people I don’t know. I think they can be good, and have real chances to win medals.

About the chanches...
Robert Kowalik has been Polish Champion in Aerobatics for 6 times:
-Largeamount of competitors take part this year in Advanced World Aerobatic Championships in Poland.
Who do You bet to be the Champion this year.

Robert Kowalik: The strongest are the teams from Chech Republik, Ukraine, Russia and France. If it is about me , I will do my best to show myself from the best side to

the Polish public, although I understand that ambitions and willings won't be enough. A strong training izs what I need. As a pilot of Central Wings I don't have enough time for training.I think that young , very talented pilot from Zielona Góra Krzysztof Kossi?ski can make a big surprice to us.

 -Your plan MIN AND MAX...

Robert Kowalik :- I don't have plans like that .Whenever I start I always want to fight for the first place. I understand that taking part in World Aerobatic Championships is not the same as competiting in Polish Championships,but in spite of planning I am going to fight for the best place. I can't let down my fans from Radom.
