GBR World Championship Silver Medal – Space Modelling

An individual Silver medal has been won by British Team member Nigel Bathe at the Space World Championships.

Nigel Bathe won the silver individual medal in the Boost Glider class at the recent Space World Championships in Lleida, Spain.  A member of the British Team a number of times, Nigel has always had the potential for a podium place and it is fitting that he should be the first ever British medal winner in this duration class*.  The particular space model he deployed was developed over the past three years by the British Team members who belong to FAIR, the BMFA Specialist Body for FAI Space Modelling, the only international competition category.

Nigel’s medal brings the number of individual podium places won at each of the last three Space Modelling Word Championships to three.

I have been informed subsequently that Peter Freebrey FSMAE won the Boost Glider  individual silver medal at the 1972 World Championships and the Scale Altitude gold medal at the 1974 World Championships.  Apologies to Peter Freebrey and I am happy to set the record straight and to acknowledge that Nigel is following in famous footsteps.
