And the winner is…

The results are in! After 7 long hours of deliberation, the judges have cast their votes. Jillian Callahan’s clever voting system made the voting process so very smooth this year, but the actual choosing was made difficult by the quality of the entries. We had several truly excellent designs this year, but we managed to narrow it down to a handful of candidates.

And so, here are the winners of Abbott’s Aerodromes 2006 2nd Annual Design Competition.

In first place, with a very realistic looking lander module, was JC Hill.

In second place, a very convincing lander designed by someone who used to design landers for a living, Moebius Overdrive.

And finally in third place, with an open-cockpit, personal-size lander, Jimbo Perhaps.

Thanks to everyone who participated in this event! It was a real blast.
