Regarding the naming, renaming and reverting of External links/Sources: I have no strong preference, but as the person who wrote the article, I did indeed use all the links as sources. However, Alkivar's comment in his summary has a corollary: future links might be added by other editors who do not also add to the article, so keeping the header "External links" where there are not both prevents that links which were not used as sources be incorrectly labeled as such. One puppy's opinion. KillerChihuahua ?!? 12:23, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
While the Honeywell version of the trophy merits inclusion, the original award was the Bendix Trophy. Honeywell had nothing to do with the award until 1998, and then changed the awarding of the trophy from transcontinental speed to "air safety". Maybe create a redirect page for Honeywell Bendix trophy, but please don't confuse the two. McNeight 21:04, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
The list of winners is incomplete. Full list can be found at Quest for Speed (scroll to end of page). I don't have time right now to do the table, but will if no one has by the time I get some free time for it. KillerChihuahua ?!? 19:13, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
1947 and 1948 are on this page... still looking for 60, 61. KillerChihuahua ?!? 19:33, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
Looks like '61 was Richard F. Gordon, Jr., (Captain, USN, Ret.) - a NASA Astronaut [1] "Los Angeles to New York in May 1961, he established a new speed record of 869.74 miles per hour and a transcontinental speed record of 2 hours and 47 minutes." No word on purse. '55 was another astronaut, [2] "Capt. Edward D. Kenny was awarded the Bendix trophy after winning the Bendix cross-country race, setting a new world's record time of 3 hours 1 minute 56 seconds, with an average speed of 616.208 mph in a Republic F-84F".
There has to be a site with all of these listed...
1950 apparently canceled due to Korean war: [3]
1956 here, no purse data [4]
Complete list winners names only, not the best looking source but if the ones we have match, will do for a start. [5]
Winners list to verify from here:
