The IAC Board of Directors are constantly searching for ways to be financially responsible and to continue bringing IAC members valuable benefits and resources.
One such area of discussion has been the Sport Aerobatics Magazine and the plan announced recently to transition from the current printed format to an all-digital version. A huge thank you to everyone that has provided comments, suggestions, and input on this matter.

Last year I wrote an article for Sport Aerobatics called, “Roll Drills”. I’ve referred to this article literally dozens of times this year.
It’s my belief that if a pilot has really mastered rolls that the sport becomes much easier. There are too many people trying to cover up roll errors, even in the Advanced or Unlimited categories.
IAC Policy and Procedures Section 229 (which governs the Sequence Program) provides the proposed sequences to be available for member comment for the next 30 days. Deadline September 30, 2023, 1700 CST. Feedback must be received within the 30-day comment period for these 2024 sequences. PDFs of the proposed Power and Glider knowns for 2024 are available for download below. With the exception of the Primary Power which the sequence committee recommends remains unchanged from 2023.
The submission deadline for IAC members to propose changes to the IAC Official Contest Rules for the 2024 contest season was July 1st. These proposals have now been compiled. A total of 46 proposals from the membership were received. A PDF with all of the rule proposals is available for download below. Although organized some to assist with evaluation of similar inputs, these are generally listed in the order received.
