Our XXI National Contest was held on Saturday 21st and Sunday 22nd October 2006, as part of the Air Festival 2006 organized by the Ecuadorian Air Force to commemorate their 86th Anniversary of establishment. Like other years, this event was extensively promoted with the media and El Universo daily news made a special report on our organization and this event, for their La Revista weekly magazine, released last 1st of October and can also be seen on Internet. Many modelers registered their models, willing to participate in the contest and other modelers facilitated their models for a unique exhibition that delighted kids and grown ups. There was a massive participation of expectators from Guayaquil and other regions from the interior, who motivated by the Air Festival and the prestige of our model

In the contest, the largest representation was aviation, with 4 models, followed by military models with 19, including 5 magnificent dioramas. Finally there were 3 naval models and just one model car. In total, there were 68 models in 27 categories. This year, our subject for the contest wa Latin America.

As a curious thing and for the first time in our contests history, we had two model with same amount of votes in the public's favorite contest. This time Juan A. Jurado's Royal Sovereign and Carlos Macias' Budapest 1945 diorama were equaly voted by the visitors. Two awards were given.

With registration period finished on Saturday, the judges had the difficult task of judging the models and those included below received their awards from Jimmy Galvez as IPMS Guayaquil's President and Crnl. Zanoni Garcia as Chief Commander of FAE's 22 Wing.
