Pilot of the month Re Vamp
Up to now we have two good suggestions. We can get a stock of Tee Shirts small medium and large with NHPC Pilot of the month on the front. Or a small trophy possibly with P.O.M engraved on it. Are there any other suggestions??
Cheers

Pilot of the month is a great thing to have for any club, it promotes the development of all our members flying, developes the willingness to learn and become a much safer pilot and in the long run improves our sport.
The tee shirt is a great idea with 'NHPC pilot of the month' printed front and back In time the shirts will be a much sorted item to be seen on the hill.

Sorry to be a bore but I agree with the point John - and Gordon - originally made at the meeting. That pilot of the month should be awarded on merit only - and not for bloopers like being dragged etc.
I know the award is just a bit of fun but it could also perhaps become a little more inclusive and meaningful if nominations are made on a forum thread during the month and then voted online just before the next meeting. This might generate some canny craic and a laugh too but will also ensure everyone who can't make the meetings gets a shout.
And as Gordon suggested nominations could also be made for a broader range of achievements such as helping the club in a non flying capacity or like Trevor's excellent diversification to qualified microlight pilot.
Prize t-shirts and trophies are ok but how about a simple A5 NHPC Pilot of the Month laminated certificate?

7 replies from the whole club including coaches which is basically members saying I couldn't care less about this monthly trophy.
So in that case for now can I suggest that we keep the trophy as it is but without having to wear the hat.

John I would'nt get disheartened, generally what happens is if someone agrees with whats already been written then they don't post. Apologies that I have not posted as I wish to be impartial and want you guys to have the award for what you guys want the award for.
If Acro was easy they'd call it Cross Country
