HELLO ALL!!!

I HAVE JOINED THE CIVIL AIR PATROL IN BLAIRSVILLE SQUADRON 152 AND I WILL BE LEARNING ABOUT AEROSPACE AND TEACHING IT AFTER THE FIRST OF THE YEAR. I WANT TO PROVIDE THE C.A.P. CADET'S WITH THE BEST EDUCATION I CAN GIVE THEM AND ANY OUTSIDE HELP WOULD BE GREATLY WELCOME. MYSELF AND SEVERAL OTHER SENOR MEMBERS ARE LOOKING INTO GETTING OUR PRIVATE PILOTS LICENSE AND WOULD LIKE TO GET MORE INVOLVED WITH THE FLYING COMMUNITY. IF YOU EVER JUST WANT SOMEONE TO "TAG" ALONG ON A FLIGHT WHEN YOU HAVE THE EXTRA ROOM OR WOULD LIKE TO COME IN AND SPEAK TO ALL OF USE LET ME KNOW AND I WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN.

WE HAVE SEVERAL CADET'S THAT WILL BE PURSUING A CAREER IN AVIATION AND WE HAVE DONE OUR BEST TO REACH OUT THROUGH THE AIRPORT AND OTHER CONNECTIONS TO SHOW JUST HOW GREAT THE AVIATION COMMUNITY REALLY IS.

That's awesome.

However, I have to ask, is that how you talk on the radio? SHOUTING EVERYTHING?

Good for you sir!

I have my private but havent flown in years. It’s rewarding to be able to fly but VERY expensive and why I don’t fly anymore. Getting your instrument rating is almost a must these days especially if you want to take even small trips anywhere. I don’t have my instrument but if I started flying again I would get it.

There is a very active youth aviation group at Candler Field in Williamson. You should contact them for ideas and direction for your project.

Also, contact the EAA in Oshkosh Wi, Look into their "eagles" program for youth.

I have a good friend of mine that flies regularly. He doesn’t own a plane, just rents.

My Dad was a Delta pilot and had a passion for flying that was unsurpassed. I got my license but never had that passion he did for flying. Guess I was a car nut at heart. Seems you may have some of that passion. Enjoy it !!

I used to co-own a couple of planes. I'd suggest renting until you get license(s). Get some hours, decide if you really like it enough to commit to your own plane (running costs aren't trivial), and what kind of flying, (and hence what kind of plane), you enjoy.
