Simon (l) with Gordon (r) his instructor

This Sunday was the day for Simon! After coming out diligently on nearly every Saturday and Sunday through a very windy Spring Simon made his first 3 solo flights yesterday! He's been ready for a while and everything came together. Now the real learning begins!

Thanks, a lot Gordon for leading and executing the Grounds and Runway Improvement Project (GRIP)

Waiting for the Bermuda grass to grow…and we need you on the mower team. Please, contact David Buttram, David Coggins or Kurt Krieg for a tractor sign-off. We must keep the grass short to prevent the weeds from coming back.
