Karl
Jensen said: “The award selection process is initiated by the leaders of the
various sections affiliated to Aero Club of SA who provide motivation to the
board of Aero Club. The Aero Club can only recognise these outstanding
individuals if your section leadership communicate with AeCSA. Communication is
so efficient nowadays that even young children are capable of communication
that would’ve been impossible ten years ago. It takes little dedication to read
what AeCSA publishes but sadly so few of our members do just that. It is not my
task to berate those of you who are present because you are the converted.”
