New Diamond?
I've heard talk of a new diamond's being proposed by
IGC or some such body. Mention was made of a 4th diamond for a 750km flight to stand between the 500km and the 1000km diploma. If true, this would pave the way for a fifth diamond for a goal flight of 750km. Who knows details about this? |

It will be a Diploma, not a Diamond. It will differ from the 1000+ km Diplomas in that it is a national-level award, no international number will be assigned... Marc |
