The winners of the Recreational Aviation Foundation‘s annual photo contest have been revealed.
For this year’s contest, the association received photos from all over the country. Officials split the nation into five regions. Judges report they had difficulty selecting just one winner from each region, finally selecting eight winners.
“The quality and composition of the photos submitted were excellent,” said Patricia Tyler. “It was truly a challenge for all the judges to determine the winners. We look forward to writing our appreciation on these lovely cards.”
Each winner will receive a package of high-quality greeting cards with their photo on the front and photo credit on the back.

Utah is the mecca of outdoor adventure. I don’t reside there but I find myself spending a lot of time there ever year. The number of remote airfields is tremendous. One of the trickiest to get in and out of is called “Hidden Splendor.”
They are all STOL…not much variety in aviation there.
All of them are fantastic but my fave is the Mexican Mountain Utah scene.
