Five Scholarships provided to
Ghanaian Students in
Healthcare and Science
We are happy to announce the grant of five scholarships to deserving students in the city of Accra in the country of Ghana on the west coast of Africa. The grants will be for studies in the needed fields of healthcare and the sciences. In my trips to Ghana, I have meet many young people trying to make a better life for themselves and their families. These grants are not in our theme of aviation education, but is appropriate for the situation and area. For more on my trip to Africa click here.
CADETS THIRD CLASS
We congratulate Kenita Horsley, Keith Horsley, and Brenton Stowers. After passing the ground school part of the "Introduction to Aviation Program", and demonstrating standard flight maneuvers, our cadets were graduated as Cadets Third Class.
During the preflight inspection, Joel adds water to fuel to demonstrate how fuel and water look when together in the strainer.
Here are pictures of our cadets as they learn the preflight checklist with their instructor, our "Director of Flight Training", Mr. Joel Weaner. The cadets are preparing for their first cross-country flight. After an intensive preflight inspection, it was off on our cross country route that began with Brenton at the stick. He flew the first leg of our flight, Craig Airport to St. Marys Georgia. After a brief tour of the facility and a flight debriefing it was Keith's turn to demonstrate his flight skills on the second leg of our journey, St. Marys to Herlong Airport in Jacksonville. After the flight debriefing and a facility tour, it was off on the final leg to Craig Airport with Kenita at the stick. Kenita flew along the river, with a few turns around the stadium for good luck, and made her landing at Craig. We're very proud of our cadets and their aviation achievements.
