This Week in Aviation (Jan 19-22)

 In Uncategorized

Dear Parents and students,

We have been studying risk management and safety in Aviation. Students have been assigned “Go Team” roles and have investigated several case studies to find meaningful safety recommendations to mitigate future accidents.  So far they have done an excellent job.  Even the seemingly minute details can sometimes vbe very important in aviation safety!

FLIGHT SCHOLARSHIPS ARE AVAILABLE NOW!

Thanks to the generosity of the Ray Foundation, 80 exceptional high school students, ages 15 to 18, each will receive a $10,000 scholarship to pursue a private pilot, sport pilot, or recreational pilot.
