Terry - He should certainly win an award for weird and another one for getting away with what he does. Anyone who can operate so far from the norms that we take for granted, not hurt anyone and still live is certainly noteworthy, as this thread proves.
But as you are mentioning awards for navigation, flight planning, airmanship and such things can you tell me how TC-T can possibly quality for any award? She doesn't plan, has clearly demonstrated and even brags about her total disregard for the law, shows dreadfully poor airmanship, had questionable navigation skills, even with a GPS and had two interesting and very public crashes. A female Mauruce Kirk if you like. I can not reconcile the lack of differences between them when it come to flying.
