    By the mid 1930s, Roscoe Turner had become one of America's greatest racers, and he wanted to keep on winning. In 1936, he designed his own racing plane, the Laird-Turner Meteor, with an eye toward continued victories. The Meteor, which came to be known as the Turner Special, was a mid-wing monoplane, incorporated all of the latest aerodynamic advances and was just the type of aircraft that Turner needed to gain an edge in the National Air Races.
    Turner achieved some of his greatest accomplishments as a racer while flying the
    Turner Special
    . In 1938, he won the Thompson Trophy Race for a second time, and in the process, became the first person to capture it more than once. He also received the Cliff Henderson Trophy once again, and the Harmon Trophy for being America's premier aviator. Then, in 1939, he did what many considered unthinkable by winning the Thompson a third time, a feat no one else has yet matched. As a result, Turner received the Henderson Trophy for a second year in a row for having been the best speed pilot once again. After achieving the unthinkable, Turner retired from racing.
