Nelson Award

TWA had many dedicated Check Airmen over its long and storied history. There was no person more vocal in his pride and respect for the Check Airmen of TWA than Captain Grant Nelson. This annual award is an appropriate testament to honor Grant and each year's winner for their years of dedication and excellence to training and standards. It will continue to be awarded annually to the Check Airman who, in your eyes, devoted themselves to making the pilots of TWA the best in the airline industry.

The Nelson award will not be awarded this year in order to reserve our financial resources for our JFK reunion.
