The 2005 Art Scholl Showmanship Award was presented to air show pilot and long-time ICAS member Bud Granley on December 3 during the ICAS Convention in Orlando, Florida.

Granley was recognized for his many entertainment contributions to air show business, for his air show showmanship skills in a wide range of challenging aircraft, for his role as an air show innovator, and for his commitment to doing whatever it takes to use his aircraft to help entertain air show audiences.

Granley becomes the twentieth air show performer to receive the prestigious Art Scholl Showmanship Award since it was first offered to recognize air show showmanship. Perhaps the most talented air show pilot of his generation, Scholl was a renowned aerobatic pilot and consummate air show performer. He flew his Penzoil Chipmunk aircraft before an estimated audience of 80 million people over 20 years and appeared in more than 200 motion picture films, documentaries and television commercials.
