Current POTW Winner | Past POTW Winners

It’s the last week of 2004, and AVweb readers have settled in for their long winter’s nap. While we were dutifully wrapping presents, checking our lists, and eating giant hams, a handful of AVweb readers took time to share some of their best amateur aviation photos. Let’s have a look at the last of the 2004 pictures, starting with this week’s baseball hat winner, Marty Tippin of Missouri.

“AIRMET Zulu”
Marty Tippin
of Lee’s Summit, Missouri chills us
with this week’s winning photo. Following a 2002 ice storm in
Kansas City, “this Grumman AA-5 Traveler was sitting
on its tail from all the ice,” writes Marty.
