EU/UK Trophies – 2014

THE CHALLENGE!

 

In 2013, CARRIER-DECK.COM was proud to sponsor two trophies, awarded to the pilots who flew the fastest and slowest seven laps of the season.

The winners were respectively David Cowburn (Lockheed U2, 23.3 seconds = 77.2mph) and Jan Odeyn (Martin MO-1, 184.2 seconds = 9.8 mph).

Those were very good times – could they be beaten? Surely not – but oh yes, they could – and how!
