The Grand Average Speed Ace Pigeon Is Not a Title. It’s a Verdict.
There are One Loft Races where a single brilliant day is enough to make headlines. Thailand Masters FCI is not one of them. This race is not designed to reward a lucky strike. It is built to expose weakness. The Grand Average Speed Ace Pigeon ranking is the hardest judgment an OLR can deliver. No opinions. No excuses. Just mathematics.
Pigeons at the top did not shine once. They survived weeks of pressure, heat, repetition, and relentless correction races. This is selection in its purest form.
Why Thailand Masters FCI Is Different
Thailand Masters FCI is engineered as a grinder. Heavy races are systematically followed by 120 km correction flights. Not for recovery, but to test it. Pigeons that go deep once and fail to bounce back are quietly eliminated. Only those with real substance remain.
The officially confirmed race sequence up to this point is brutal and uncompromising:
100 km, 120 km, 150 km, 120 km, 180 km, 120 km, 220 km, 120 km, 250 km, 120 km and 320 km.
Any pigeon still ranking high after this program is not surviving by chance. It has proven durability, balance, and mental strength.
Grand Average Speed Ace Pigeon: No Debate Possible
The ranking is calculated by Benzing using a simple but unforgiving formula: Total distance flown divided by total flight time.
Every race counts. Every mistake stays on the record. Every strong performance must be repeated. That is why experienced fanciers often value the Grand Average title even more than a single Final victory. This is not a snapshot. This is character.

This is not a country list. It is a global power map. Middle East, Europe, Asia, and Australia collide here under identical conditions. No home advantage. No protection.
The Netherlands stands out with authority. Nico van Noordenne appears twice in the Top 20, a clear sign that quality repeats itself under pressure.
What Comes Next: Zero Margin for Error
On December 30, another 120 km race awaits. It looks harmless. It is not. This is a race where nothing can be gained, but everything can be lost. One lapse in focus and weeks of work evaporate.
Then comes the executioner; January 3, 2026 – the FCI Final over 400 km.
This is where calculations stop. This is where excuses end. Pigeons that survive this final test do not belong to the participant list anymore. They become references.
Final Word From The Pigeon Boss
Thailand Masters FCI has reached the stage every true One Loft Race must reach. Open cards. Hard numbers. No safety nets.
The Grand Average Speed Ace Pigeon is not a trophy for the shelf.
It is proof that a pigeon endured everything this sport can demand.
And those who finish on top here no longer need an explanation.
Until the next blog,
Jan de Wijs
The Pigeon Boss
