Bob Welch awarded Don McClave Vintage Stunt trophy

Bob Welch of Federal Way, Wash., was awarded the 2024 Don McClave Vintage Stunt Trophy the 2024 Fall Follies in Portland, Ore., on Oct. 12-13.

Bob Welch achieved the honor that is awarded to the top competitor in the Flying Lines standings in combined Old-Time and Classic Stunt.  Bob scored points in both events. Bob was not present in Portland, so Randy Ling accepted the award on his behalf and delivered it to him at home.

The Vintage Stunt Trophy was originated and sponsored by the late Don McClave.  Since his death it has been sponsored by Flying Lines.
