I know that Riddle Prescott got 1st overall, and the Sportsmanship Awards went to Western Mich. After taking home the AA Safety Award two years in a row, Florida Tech gave it up to OSU I think.
That's all that my buddy at school could remember.
Congrats to everyone who participated. I miss those competitions, they were a lot of fun.

From the mid 80's to the early 90's the National SAFECONs were dominated by the University of North Dakota. Since the 92 or so, it's usually a toss up between UND or one of the ERAU's, with an occational smaller school once in a while.
I competed in the '93 & '94 National SAFECON's. My hat is off to all the competitors. With the advent of GPS and glass cockpits in GA aircraft, let's hope good old fashion pilot skills never become a lost art! I still put the skills/techniques I learned years ago from my time on the team, to use every day.

This may be a different trophy (award) than the SAFECON. I got this information from the OSU Flying Aggies website:
"In 1951, the Flying Aggies Flight Team attended their first air meet. The team has compiled a distinguished record of championships on both the regional level and the national level.
The organization has won the Grover Loening trophy, a national award presented to the nation's outstanding aviation club, 22 times. This record is unmatched by any other collegiate flying club. This achievement is due to a high level of membership involvement and club activities."
