Our Past Raffle Winners!

Summer 2025
In July 2025, we raffled off a beautifully reimaged and restored Cessna 172 Skyhawk, and our lucky-first place winner was Keith Krumwiede! Keith and his wife visited Flight Club 502 to see what we were all about and absolutely loved it. Both Keith and his wife have a long history in aviation and enjoyed long careers as air traffic controllers. They flew in on their beautiful Cherokee and ultimately chose the cash prize so they could upgrade their current aircraft!
