"We encourage every National Airsport Controls (NAC) and FAI Commissions to spread the word about this webinar and invite interested individuals to register promptly. It is crucial for the success of FAI events that our Officials are completely at ease and thoroughly informed about all aspects of their roles, enabling them to fulfill their responsibilities effectively."
