Scott Farnsworth started his obsession with aviation as early as he can remember. Ever since his first flight in a small Piper aircraft on his 15th birthday Scott has passionately pursued everything that flies. Scott’s adventurous spirit led him into the Baja Bush pilot lifestyle while attending college in San Diego CA.

His unique flying opportunities into some of the most challenging environments provided the experience that allowed Scott to be hired for his first airline job at a young age. When he was hired, Scott was the youngest pilot within the airline. At the age of 22 Scott moved into jet airliners a setup in an already successful career lived with dedication and enthusiasm. Scott’s position both as an Airbus 321 Captain for Jetblue Airways and founder of AircraftWraps has allowed him to explore and pursue his passions in both aerobatics and low-level competition pylon racing. In 2015, Scott competed in his XtremeAir XA42 and earned the position of Champion in the Reno National Air Races Sport Class.

2016 will prove to be another exciting year for Scott. In January 2016 Scott once again captured the title of Air Race Champion while competing in Lisbon Portugal against pilots from around the world. Utilizing both aerobatics and racing on the Air Race Championship course Scott obtained another victory while piloting his XtremeAir XA42. The US Reno National Air Races in 2016, Scott Farnsworth will compete in both the Jet Class and Sport Class. Off the Race course, Scott has joined the Red Dragon Aero Team for 2016 and is excited to bring this new exciting L29 Jet Formation team to the spectators and fans of China.
