Hill Aviation
Each year we try to offer a little assistance to a selection of gliding events and initiatives by providing sponsorship towards competition prizes or the costs of publishing a magazine or promoting an event or funding a trip.
In 2005 we commissioned local craftsman John Taylor to create a new trophy for Competition Enterprise. The Blunt Nail Trophy is the result.
A replica of a Kirby Gull, it represents the spirit of doing things the hard way. The Competition Director will award it each year to a pilot or pilots for meritorious performance in the competition.
Congratulations to those pilots listed below who have already been awarded the trophy. We hope that their determination will inspire new competitors to rise to the challenge.
Past winners:
Here are some other worthy causes we've made our small contribution to over the years:
B.G.A. Safety News Letters and Accident Summary publications
British Team World Championships
British Women's Team World Championships
