Spring and Summer Activity
May and June of this year has seen a number of first solos and private pilot checkrides. Please scroll down to see all the happy pilots!
First Solo
Congratulations to Derek Kilbride who soloed Cherokee 190 at I75 on Tuesday June 2! Rick Gleason is his instructor.
Private Pilot
First Solo
Congratulations to Stuart Rauh who Soloed in the last week of June at Ankeny in the Cherokee 140! He's pictured here with his instructor, Tom Merfeld who said, "I was able to get him to remove his tie for the flight! (lest I cut it rather than the shirt)"
Private Pilot
First Solo
Congratulations to Tucker Anderson who Soloed in early June! Tucker decided to learn to fly to overcome his fear of flying at the advice of a good friend. He has certainly accomplished that now as he has soloed a DSMFC airplane all by himself. Tucker is looking forward to getting his pilot certificate and will use his new found ablity to travel for his growing business.
