    The set \(\mathcal L\) of lines in \(PG(3,q)\) is said to be a Cameron-Liebler line class with parameter \(x\), if \(| {\mathcal L}\cap {\mathcal S}| =x\) for any spread \(\mathcal S\). In this paper for any odd prime power \(q\) it is constructed a new Cameron-Liebler line class with parameter \((q+1)/2\). Apart from it is proved the following result. Theorem 4.1. Let \({\mathcal O}\) be an elliptic quadric in \(PG(3,q)\), q odd. If \({\mathcal S}\) be a set of pairwise skew lines, each of which is tangent to \({\mathcal O}\), then \(| {\mathcal S}| \leq q^2-q+2\).
