Hartzell Propeller Executive Vice President JJ Frigge said, “We are again thrilled that Red Bull Air Race Championship has chosen Hartzell’s propellers to fly on each and every one of the race aircraft. There just isn’t any other competitive situation that wrings out every last ounce of performance in such an exciting aviation setting.”

The American has a crisp, aggressive and athletic style of flying that has made him a fan favorite around the world. Goulian is a fierce competitor who makes each strenuous flight maneuver an execution of precision.
