    It's 2024 and we're off to a flying start in Control Line. A great 76th Nats
    and the grass half of the Waikato Champs are already complete - the
    tarmac half will be done by the time you read this. We've got a busy
    schedule ahead of us again and in the near future it's the Whangarei
     CL Champs in early March and the Taranaki Easter Champs to look
    forward to. Get out there and enjoy it!

     CL SIG Committee
    At the Nats AGM CL SIG Chair Gerald Wimmer stepped down from
    the job after several years as Chair and Secretary, so a new SIG

    As always the SIG is there to support the safe enjoyment of Control
    Line flying in New Zealand, and features a broad range of expertise in
    various fields relevant to our task. If you as a CL modeller have any
    ideas, questions or concerns regarding our branch of the hobby, feel
    free  to  contact  the  committee  member  of  your  choice  to  discuss.
    Contact  details  are  published  on  the  CL  SIG  page  of  the  MFNZ
    website.

    Goals for the year
    As with any organisation, the CL realm always has a few things that
    could use tweaking, upgrading or straight out replacing. Some of the
    matters that have been raised in the last few years have become ripe
    for action this year, so here's a short list of things we'll be looking to
    resolve in the near future. Expect to hear more about some of them
    and again, feel free to make your thoughts known to a committee
                                                                                                              Chris
                                                                                                              Chris
