Award Winners at the 2017 Warbirds and Classics


Thank you to EVERYONE who came out, watched, helped and participated in the 2017 Warbirds and Classics!

I’d like to recognize the winners. Please know these awards were quite subjective and recognize some of the great aircraft that were there. I say some because in truth all of the aircraft out there were spectacular in their own right. And all were flown by fellow modelers who love the hobby and flying scale! Thank you for your participation and passion.
