Hi Guys,
It is with much regret due to workload affecting man critical functions of the SAAA that we as the major event sponsor have decided that Ausfly for 2014 will have be postponed until 2015. However, there will still be a fly in/BBQ for all who still want to attend. Our national Council will also be available to the members.
Our first press release was yesterday, and I am still getting around to updating all sites/facebooks.
Thank you for your understanding and we apologise for any inconvenience this causes you.
Should you require any further information, Please do not hesitate to contact the office at [email protected]

I heard it had to do with someone involved running off with some money..Just saying...
Funny as bro.No, that is 100% FALSE
Money for Ausfly was never a problem. That being said there was none left over to run off with
As a first time poster you need to check your facts a bit better

Having been involved with motorsport & aero clubs almost all of my adult life and having organised events and done the hard work from the inside to have an event come off successfully I have to ask .... Dude do you even have a clue?, you have successfully got through the last 50 years of your life to spew out garbage like that on your first ever post .... wake up!
Jaba you were too kind ....
the parole & community service was tough.

the saaa has always teetered on the edge of a shortage in the core group.
you'd think they'd fix the structural problems in the org structure but some I'm sure love the drama and pressure.
no I'm never joining again.

It is a shame that there isnt accurate information about the reasons available. It just allows the rumours and misinformation to spread. Nothing kills a rumour like the truth.
If it is due to a lack of human resources then that is clearly very disapointing. There are probably a number of members of SAAA who, if only they knew there was a problem, would be keen to assist.

Typical SAAA administration. They have burned everyone that ever tried to help them. Mangalore, promised the world, used everyone, then moved on.Wagga, promised the world, used everyone, then moved on. Cowra, promised the world, used everyone then moved on. Looks like it's Narromines turn.

Narromine Fly-in 2014 (NOT AUSFLY)
SAAA chapter 38 extended BBQ.
With the temporary demise of AUSFLY for this year, Members of the local chapter, 38, were faced with the prospect of having a very lonely meeting. Therefore after a quick discussion among the Chapter Exec, it has been decided to hold a flyin open to all interested parties together with an extended BBQ, held on the same dates. Friday 12th through to Sun 14th Sept at Narromine aerodrome.
The initial response to this proposal has been overwhelming. Many exhibitors have already expressed their wish to attend and display their wares, and it also seems likely that informative sessions will be run in conjunction with the "extended BBQ".
As this is a preliminary notice to all interested parties, there is little detail, simply as the Exec, at this stage, has no idea as to details. Once we have received the approval of all relevant authorities, then we can announce further plans. It will be "different" but hopefully very relevant to aviation.
Further details contact

we transitioned from a central organisation to chapters during my time.
what used to happen is that everyone attended meetings and watched what the central group organised.....but did little themselves.
what was supposed to happen is that the central bs stopped and what the locals were doing was supposed to be centre stage.
...it was bloody slow happening I can tell you.
Chapter 38 taking over from the central group and organising a local narromine event is exactly what was supposed to happen.
more strength to your efforts guys! my sincere congratulations. W8

What approvals do you need to hold a fly in? Or am I missing something that wasn't mentioned that I can be excused for not knowing.
Just do it.
