AOPA’s Pilot Passport Red, White and Badge Challenge takes off

By General Aviation News Staff · June 30, 2020 ·

The Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association’s 2020 Pilot Passport July Red, White and Badge Challenge Contest takes off July 1, with prizes awarded to the four pilots who earn the most badges during the month of July.

To enter the contest, pilots must use the “Pilot Passport” feature on the AOPA app to earn badges by checking into airports, posting photos, comments and ratings, and sharing on social media during the month of July.

Using Pilot Passport, you can search for new places to fly, check in at airports and aviation events, earn points and badges for meeting certain criteria, and share your adventures with others through social media and the Pilot Information Center.

At the conclusion of the July challenge, the four pilots who earn the most badges will be the Grand Prize winners. Each Grand Prize winner will receive a Freedom to Fly book and a Pilot Workshops Real World Coast to Coast USB drive. Approximate retail value of each Grand Prize is $179.

You can see the full rules of the challenge here.
