What does it take to compete at the highest level — at any speed?Join us for “Limitless at Any Speed” with Justin Meaders — Team USA ParaTriathlon athlete, 3x International Formula One Air Race Champion, aircraft builder, STOL Unlimited Class competitor and adaptive pilot.
Moderated by Josh Richling, Wild West Aircraft Crew Chief to STOL and STOL Drag World Champion Steve Henry.
Justin is the first paraplegic pilot ever licensed to compete in pylon air racing. He entered Formula 1 Air Racing in 2016 and was nominated Rookie of the Year while flying a borrowed aircraft — with custom hand controls he engineered himself.
He built his race plane, Limitless, from the ground up. The aircraft features a one-of-a-kind airframe, wing, and tail configuration and represents the only airworthy SnoShoo design ever built and raced. It went on to become one of the fastest Formula One race planes in the history of the sport, earning multiple National Championships at Reno.
Today, Justin brings that same elite mindset to the National STOL Series, competing in the Unlimited Class and continuing to push the boundaries of performance.
Josh brings an insider’s perspective on aircraft performance, competition strategy, and what it takes to win at the highest level.
