Dave's First Solo

Dave Lewis soloed the SR22 at OXV today and his landings were perfect! 

Check out the video . . .

Go Tyler!

A former student contacted me last week with some news.  I've pasted a photo and clip from the email below. 

Anyways, thought I would check in and let you know where I'm at and what I'm doing. I'm commissioned as a 2nd Lt in the USAF down in Pensacola, Florida, in flight school.  We're training on the T6 Texan II.  It's an 1,100hp turbo prop powered aircraft. Here is a picture of my class. I'm the 5th one from the right. 

Hope all is well back home and congratulations on your retirement!

Congratulations Tyler. Give em hell and keep me posted . . .

Craig Thomes flew his first lesson today. Congrats to Craig . . .

New IFR Pilot . . .

Belated congratulations to Barb Broderick. Barb pass her IFR check-ride recently and I finally got a picture. Get this, she did it without a GPS or autopilot! The next time I hear you guys complaining about how hard it is I'm going to ask Barb to show you how it's done . . .

First Flight

Andrew Cleveringa took his first lesson today. Great job Andrew . . .

Fly the Citabria!

Is it time for a flight review?  How about adding a tailwheel endorsement while your at it?

This beautiful aircraft is available for dual instruction.  It makes a perfect birthday or anniversary present and gift certificates are available.  Contact me now and let's take the Citabria for a "SPIN"!

Have you ever wondered where they got the name CItabria?

It's "AIRBATIC" backwards.
