International Participation of SAMAA Members


ANY South African sports person - in our case a model pilot - who attends any international flying event is required to apply to SASCOC, with form NC1 for permission to participate. 

This application is lodged by the SIG, not by the individual. If it were an FAI event, or an event organised by an NAC/Association according to FAI rules, the individual may need an FAI Licence.

SAMAA members who wish to participate in a non-FAI event do not require FAI Licences, but the application must be lodged by the MGA. No national colours are involved in this case.

ALL such applications are required to come through the MGA.

National Colours are only awarded to teams participating in FAI World Championships where the published team selection process was followed, individuals and teams have qualified, and application was made.
