Japan’s Tetra Aviation won the $100,000 Pratt & Whitney Disruptor Award in the GoFly Final Fly-Off on February 29. However, the main $1 million grand prize was not awarded at the event held at Moffett Federal Airfield at NASA’s Ames Research Center in California, after windy conditions interrupted the planned demonstration flights.

Organizers said that they expect to announce an overall winner “in the coming months” but did not explain how the final result will be decided. Also still be to be determined are the $250,000 prize winners for the quietest and the smallest compliant GoFly entries.
