The engineering proofs have been in front of us for almost a century.  For inventors everywhere, the World Sky Race will challenge their spirit of innovation."

"We thank Trammell Crow for his vision and commitment to create EDTx.  It is a joyful, entertaining and instructive program for all ages.  EDTx brings us together as proactive community and heightens our need to act in large measures and small, globally and locally.  As Trammell strives to increase the impact of EDTx each year, the World Air League will help by organizing the Texas Sky Cup for EDTx 2017.  We are looking forward to have a couple of airships travel above Texas a next year's events." pledged Don Hartsell Commissioner of the World Air League.
