Honey, We Won an Airplane

What's online?Let's all go places

AOPA’s Pilot Passport Poker Run challenge encourages everyone to get out and go places. The AOPA Poker Run National Flight Challenge is the first poker run of its kind. Players collect their hand of virtual cards following a 7 Card Stud-inspired format. The challenge runs for the entire third quarter of 2022 (July 1 through September 30); each participant will earn one of 52 cards when they check in at any public-use airport that is in the Pilot Passport app. Playing cards are issued just like Pilot Passport badges; participants can earn more than one card per day, but the airport visited must be unique, even when checking in on different days. Checking in at seven different airports will be required to get a full, eligible hand. Only hands of seven cards qualify as an entry in the contest. The five best cards are automatically selected as the entry hand. Prizes include a Bose A20 headset, an AOPA prize pack including a year of iFlightPlanner Premium access, a year of AOPA membership with Pilot Protection Services Plus, and a $100 AOPA Pilot Gear gift certificate. Share your experiences playing the poker run by uploading photos and posting comments on social media (use #AOPAPilotPassport in your posts). Winners will be selected and announced on or before October 6, 2022.
