[QUOTE=JohnShe;12020562]I am am unaware of any competition that awards cash. But, an award is not payment for effort or skill, it is a one time only prize. There is no mention of this issue in the FAA Interpretation of section 336.
Our club in Mesa awards Money form the entry fee for 1st 2nd & 3rd place in our monthly Pylon Races as do other clubs in the PHX Valley.
