History
Dusty Crophopper first encountered Gordon at the Wings Around the Globe qualifier at Lincoln, Nebraska. Due to an untimely engine malfunction, the #15 plane failed to complete his lap. Gordon would eventually make the finals in another year, competing in the Reno Air Race against Crophopper, LJH 86 Special, Little King, Antonio, Tsubasa, Gunnar Viking, and Hammer.

"Having already achieved great success in the world of acrobatic flying, Gordon decided to enter the world of competitive rally racing. Gordon's signature move is a reverse half Cuban Eight: starting from level flight, Gordon pulls into a 45-degree climb, performs a half roll while still climbing, and then completes five-eights of a loop to level out again. It is far more exciting to watch than to read about." |
Trivia
- Jan Kowalski, the Polish representative of the Wings Around the Globe, also has the number 15.
