Convenor: Guus Kramer
Scientific Chair: Klaus Höfner
The meeting started very sadly with tragic news that 6 members had died when their aeroplane crashed on landing at the airport in Hanover. They were:
- Heinz Kieswetter, Vienna
- Nikolaus Numberger, Vienna
- Ricard Steiner, Vienna
- Robert Schilling, St Polten
- Johannes Schmidt, Vienna
- Andreas Peithner, Vienna
The meeting was highly successful despite the fact that Guus Kramer had been given only 12 months in which to organise the meeting due to a late change in venue for political reasons. The meeting chairman Guus Kramer and Klaus Höfner Scientific Chair were thanked, for a very successful meeting at such short notice.
