MT Propeller Trophy

Origin

Gerd Muehlbauer, IAC member and owner of MT Propeller Entwicklung GmbH conceived the idea for presenting a trophy to the winner of the Advanced category at the U.S. National Aerobatic Championships. The trophy was first awarded in 2006. Prior to 2006, the Advanced category did not have a master trophy to recognize the achievements of the pilots in this category.

Criteria

Procedures

The name of the recipient is provided the Contest Director by the Scoring Director after the contest is completed. The recipient's plaque is ordered by the Executive Director along with the other trophies for the Nationals. No name is inscribed.

Presentation
