helicopter filming ever seen, together with live commentary, will keep
crowds in the thick of the of the action, creating a brand new
adrenalin-charged spectator event set to change the face of competitive

gliding.

[For Example John Smith]

Can I stay up late and watch it on TV like the America's Cup?
If no, is it too late for a coordinated lobbying campaign focuses on a
specific cable/sat network?
