The Oswald Watt Gold Medal is an Australian aviation award named for Oswald Watt (1878–1921), a decorated pilot in World War I. It originated in 1921 after the death of Oswald Watt and is awarded for "A most brilliant performance in the air or the most notable contribution to aviation by an Australian or in Australia" by the Royal Federation of Aero Clubs of Australia. As it is awarded on merit it is not an annual award; between the award's creation and 1999 it had been awarded a total of 48 times. It was not awarded in the years 2000 - 2010.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= Awards )〕 ==Recipients== Source: (Royal Federation of Aero Clubs of Australia ) *1921 Francis Stewart Briggs – flew from Melbourne to Brisbane and from Melbourne to Perth *1922 Harry Turner Shaw – flew in a Farman Sport from Melbourne to Sydney and return in May 1922 *1923 ''No award'' *1924 Flight Lieutenant Ivor McIntyre – pilot of a Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Fairey IIID configured as a floatplane in the first circumnavigation of Australia by air; departing from RAAF Point Cook, Victoria on 6 April 1924 and landing on St. Kilda Beach 44 days later *1925 E.
