Nova juniors team
In their quest to support young pilots between 16 and 25 years of age, Nova have created a team of 12 young pilots whom they will support in the coming season.
Already members of the Nova Pilots Team were Aaron Durogati (student from South Tyrol, Italy), Chavert ter Maat (student from the Netherlands), Franz Wanger (electrician for devices and systems from the Allgäu, Germany). At the recent Achensee meeting 40 further applicants were whittled down to Christoph Bessei (pupil from the Black Forest, Germany), Christoph Hilgärtner (student from Innsbruck, Austria), Dominic Schärtl (pupil from the Bayrischer Wald, Germany), Franz Altmann (student from Innsbruck, Austria), Nina Weissenbrunner (pupil from the Bregenzer Wald, Austria), Rico Konratt (apprentice of industrial mechanics; Cottbus, Germany) and Sebastian Benz (student from Zürich, Switzerland).
Finally Paul Guschlbauer (student from Graz, Austria), and Peter Gebhard (windpower engineer from South Tyrol; Italy) have been added to complete the team.
