MT Propeller has once again created some of the most eye catching trophies that the Sport Class could ask for. They are the talk of the banquet and will surely bring attention to the winner’s home or hangar. Please support our friends at MT Propeller as they continue to support us.
KPC has been sponsoring the Sport Class for many years. Each of our members use their Speed Cleaner on their canopy’s before each race. This year, KPC also sponsored the Rookie of the Year trophy that was awarded to Mathias Haid.
The Tommy Rose award is sponsored by IS Racing and is awarded to the pilot who demonstrates the best airmanship during the week of air racing. This years winner is Bob Swortzell for safely landing his damaged aircraft after an incident in the start chute.
A new trophy for 2017, sponsored by Blind Luck Racing and Louis Gabriel, goes to the best crew chief. Intended to be the well performing airplane mechanically speaking during the week of racing. What better trophy than a torque wrench!
