This award, presented since 1966, recognizes “outstanding individual contributions to aviation safety, through basic design, device or practice.” A retired U.S. Navy admiral and a Foundation president in the mid-1950s, de Florez was influential in the development of early flight simulators. He received the 1943 Collier Trophy — one of the most prestigious awards for aeronautical achievement in the United States — for his work in training combat pilots and flight crews. De Florez established a trust to support the award that carries his name and to provide each recipient with $1,000. The award includes a handsome, wood-framed, hand-lettered citation. The nominating deadline is May 9, 2008; the award is presented at the FSF International Air Safety Seminar (IASS). Admiral Luis de Florez Flight
