Bagira - once again the best of the air show

JETfly online magazine founded 2003 a challenge cup, which is given to the best fighter (jet) display on the Kecskemét Air Show. The first winner in 2003 was Captain Gábor „Bagira” Molnár, MiG-29 display pilot.   This year the public could determine the fate of the `JETfly` challenge cup through online voting (www.repulonap.hu and www.jetfly.hu). Votes were accepted from Saturday morning until Sunday 6 pm. Only one vote was accepted from an e-mail address.   Our online survey showed the success of the MiG-29, since the first and second place had gone to the Hungarian Air Force pilots. Captain Gábor `Bagira` Molnár gained a confident victory, receiving 54% of the votes.

The Cup was presented by István `JETfly` Koncsik, owner of the JETfly Online Magazine during the hangar party, the official closing ceremony.   Results: Place                Name                                          Percentage 1.         MiG-29, Captain Gábor „Bagira” Molnár   53 %   2.         MiG-29, Captain Zoltán `Topi` Szabó     15 %  3.         Mirage 2000 (Saturday`s display)           12 %   4.         F-16, Belgian Air Force                              7 %   5.         F-16, Dutch Air Force                                 6 %             6.         JAS-39 Gripen, Swedish Air Force              4 %   7.         Mirage 2000 (Sunday`s display)               2 %
