Default 2007 World Series Gliding Final

As far as I can tell, this is going to be held in New Zealand but
won't be produced by Airsports, after the IGC would not enter a long-
term arrangement with them to make their level of coverage
demonstrated in 2006 economically viable.

So does anyone know what the 2007 final is going to be like? Still GP
format? I guess no "live" coverage though.

Oh there's nothing like researching thoroughly before posting is
there?

(Airsports will be doing the event complete with full coverage.)

Airsports are doing the media and promotion bit, but not the contest.
You can find the webpage at http://nzairgames.homestead.com/

It'll be absolutely awsome of course.

Still GP format.

Airsports have been talking about live coverage over the Internet,
but we'll see.

They'll have live tracking and video, but how they use it is yet to be seen.
