Ann Ellmers, the Event organiser, said: "Jared, in a wonderful, selfless gesture, gifted his Air show family pass to a Ukrainian family currently residing with a generous local host."

Ann said she and many of the entrants were particularly pleased with the event, especially as they were treated to an air display from Global Stars Mark Jefferies in his Soviet Union Yak-52, which many runners and spectators described as “awesome”.
