Sonny Williams receives a Original 1954 King Orange International ( KOI) Trophy for his support of the club and the contest over the years , he competed in the KOI  in speed in 1954 and held a speed record for years.

He lost the original trophy in a house fire years ago  , we found this replacement and presented it to Sonny at the Banquet

Tickeled me that Joe Gilbert pulled off a first in Baton Rouge then did it again in Huntersville flying the T6 running a Saito 40 with my carb mod. Way to go Joe  y1 #^

Bob ,

I judged profile on Saturday with Kent Tysor, Big Class, long Day  , we both agreed  the T 6  is real impressive and the Motor Run was perfect . Pretty good pilot at the handle too

I would like to say that it was an excellent contest, you guys and gals put on a top notch event. I really enjoyed the fellowship among all the flyer's and the carrier & combat events brought some extra excitement to the contest. Hats off & extra kudos to the Metrolina Controline Club for putting on a great event. I will be looking forward to returning to Huntersville again for the spring event.  H^^ H^^ H^^ y1 #^

Ps. Will, how about posting some more footage of the action, I'm sure there was a lot of stuff we all missed with all the events going on.

Thanks again, Lynn Weedman Vice President X47Flyers
