    $50 for a Nice Tri-Pacer?

    The winner, Larry Farr of Knoxville, claimed the prize. He's new to General Aviation and that coincides with why Roy Clark offered this plane for Wings of Hope's raffle -- to promote more interest in general aviation while assisting Wings' efforts in ferrying seriously ill and needy kids to and...

    The drawing was held yesterday at Wings of Hope's HQ. The winner, someone from TN, was not present and will be notified by Certified Mail. Wings is now giving some thought to another auction....likely an aerobatic capable Aeronca -- timing unknown at present.

    $50 for a Nice Tri-Pacer?

    For further specs you'll have to contact Wings of Hope at 636.537.1302. Before deciding to raffle the plane they were going to enter it in what used to be called the Powder Puff Derby so I'd guess that the avionics are relatively current.

    $50 for a Nice Tri-Pacer?

    Here's some info from Wings of Hope: Valuing the plane is between the winner and his tax preparer. The fact that it was celebrity-owned is pretty subjective and therefore hard to quantify. Trading PPL instruction for something else is a great question, but Wings of Hope can't offer such a...

    When you look at recent winners of the prize that's a true statement. If you look thru Wings of Hope's website you'll get a much improved picture, i.e., one that actually fits the "sustained and meritorious service to mankind" criteria. Any suspicions I had are gone.....these folks do great...

    Unfortunately there's more than one Wings of Hope in the U.S. The humanitarian charity conducting this raffle has the hyphenated web address, i.e., www.wings-of-hope.org. When you take out the hyphens you get a different organization.

    I know something about Wings of Hope, the charity raffling Roy Clark's tri-pacer. It's a humanitarian charity, with no political or sectarian support. There are a number of copycat "Wings of Hope" in the U.S. and the correct website for this charity is www.wings-of-hope.org. Based in...
