My wife and I saw these in Dallas and thought, these are some nice plaques. Did'nt think that you had done most of the work yourself. You are a man of many talents!

It was a "labor of love" and a big pleasure handing over the awards to the winners.
Hope to do it again next year with the addition of; Best Aircraft to the lot.
