Admittedly I have not paid much attention to the post show awards announcement in the past but this caught my eye…
Judges’ Choice: Military Transport
United States Air Force
Pittsburg, Pennsylvania
Boeing C-17A Globemaster III, 02-1099
So, when did this start and why do US government aircraft rate an award? Aren’t US military aircraft in attendance by invite only? Are all branches of the military equally represented? Do the major aircraft manufacturers get a opportunity to have their hardware equally represented?

Hmm now let’s think about this…the C-17 was the only military transport aircraft in attendance. Really guys???
