Federal raffle: who are the winners of the top prize?

Our microlight club “Rêve Aile Toi!” is a club mainly focused on young people and training for the BIA (Aeronautical Initiation Certificate).

We entered this raffle in the hope of winning this Savannah kit and building it with our young people as part of their BIA training, so that we could then fly it on introductory flights and, for the keenest, let them go on towards a microlight pilot certificate at reduced cost.

Supported by experienced older members in building this kit, the project will take on an intergenerational dimension around a shared passion: FLYING.

While our federation is young, its members are less and less so. We must pass on our knowledge, but above all arouse interest in our fine activity by introducing young people, who are undeniably the lifeblood of our sport.

Our club has agreements with several schools to let young people discover our world in a different way, but also to let them discover themselves in an extremely rich activity.

When you push open any aeronautical door, you cannot imagine all the dimensions and the whole field of possibilities that open up to us as we take flight.

We wanted our club to allow everyone to discover and reveal themselves, hence our name, which reflects the spirit of our work: “Rêve Aile Toi!”

As a little anecdote, the lady who voted for our club wrote our club code on her raffle ticket because she liked its name.

We thank FFPLUM for having the ambitious idea of this federal raffle.

We of course thank “ICP” for their donation and for daring to entrust such a gift to a club.

We thank “Les Noyers ULM” for their support in this adventure.

Out of respect for all the other clubs that took part in this federal raffle, who also had commendable and ambitious projects, we will make it a point of honour to prove worthy of this wonderful opportunity so that this Savannah can bring out the potential of as many young people as possible.

We therefore undertake, towards FFPLUM, ICP (the Savannah’s manufacturer) and each of you who is interested in our project, to report on its progress as it goes along, with short texts, photos and videos of our young “Têtes en l’Air” (that is what we call them in our club).

We look forward to talking with you about this wonderful project, which already occupies our minds fully, and this is only the beginning…

Kind regards.
