Scattered throughout this nation are "a few good men". I don't mean the Marines. I mean pilots who give of themselves, their time, money, experience. (Fly-Low Magaine/September 2009) Read the entire article.

 

Visit Fly-Low and read all of the articles.

 

 

 

 

All these young people enjoyed 8 full days of aviation activities at

this past Aviation Summer Academy in June.

Check back the end of July for a new issue of Student Pilot Briefing dedicated to the Summer Academy.

 

Students will tell you in their own words about their experiences.
