Ever since you can remember, you have been watching planes fly and wondered what it is like to be in a small plan and how do pilots control them? Well, now is the time to come by - for free - and check it out. We will talk about all the components of the plane and what pilots look for during a typical pre-flight. Weather depending there will be up to two planes to check out. One a Cessna 172 and the other Long Eze designed by the world famous Burt Rutan!

Come look and hang out, talk and get a preview of what the people signed up for the Introductory Flight Lessons will see on Sunday!

To be clear: the event is happening rain or shine, there is no actual flying involved. SCOA members and immediate family are welcome. While we love kids - no children under the age of 10 are permitted.

       What a great opportunity to enter the world of planes & flight. Everyone was really nice and interested. Chris is a great teacher, explains things well, relates them to concepts his audience is more familiar with, and accomodating. Thank you so much for the opportunity.
