I am not a member of the Trophies & Awards committee. I attended their meetings ex officio for one year and was very impressed by the range of experience and by the care and thoroughness with which they considered every nominee.
Anyone (member or not) may nominate a candidate for an award.
See post 3 above.
It occurs to me that a 2013 flight may be too long ago for an award in 2016, but that's just a thought. I don't know.
