NEWS FROM THE SECRETARY 
 
Hello Flyers!!
 
 
 I am happy to announce that Clint Ogden has graciously accepted the position of Chief Flight Instructor for our club.  Clint is a retired educator and is taking the position vacated by the previous Chief Flight Instructor Bruce Suarez. Thank you Bruce for your dedication and professionalism to our hobby. Clint will continue to standardize our teaching curriculum as well as delineate on what exactly is required for successful solo.  Below are the names and numbers of our current flight instructors, along with our solo check pilots. If interested in lessons, please coordinate a time with your instructor prior to showing up at the field.  Remember our instructors do this on a strictly volunteer basis and come to the field to enjoy the hobby as well as give instruction.  We hope to see you at the field!!
