Congratulations UND Flying Team! 

The UND Flying team just returned from competing in the National Safety and Flight Evaluation Conference (SAFECON) in Columbus, OH. They brought back with them quite an impressive set of hardware. The team placed 2nd overall with a score of 395!

Christian Mohan earned Top Pilot and Top Scoring Male Contestant honors with an individual score of 150 points! His score alone would have beat out 22 of the 29 team field!

Other first place event winners include:

  • ·         Jacob Smith – Short Field Approach and Landing (score of 6’!)
  • ·         Christian Mohan – Power Off Landing (score of 8’!)

We also placed 2nd. 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 12th (all five of our contestants!) in the Aircraft Recognition Event!
