The 2026 Carl & Beth Goldberg award winners have been selected and are in the process of being notified and presented their awards. This award was created to show appreciation to those AMA members who go above and beyond for not only the hobby itself but for their local clubs and communities. More details will be revealed as presentations are made, and a full article will be published in the March 2027 issue of Model Aviation.
