2017 Flight Instruction starts ????

[Michael]

Do we have an official first training day for the season?

I'm game to help out now that the weather appears to be warmer, the ground is drying up and there is still sun until around 8 p.m. 

I could make it out tonight if there are any students wishing assistance.  I'll keep an eye on this post to see if any students wish help.  Please respond to this post if you wish help tonight, from 6 - 8 p.m.  If students or other instructors are going out, I'll be there too.

If I look at last year, we started on May 4th (Star Wars day!)

I think we usually start after the Spring Field clean up & official opening (which is this Saturday, April 29th.)

So I would say, based on last year and tradition, the first official Training Day (great movie, IMHO) starts May 3rd.

I'll check this with Graham @gmcnic (official owner of Training) and consider it official!

May 3rd 2017.

May the 3rd be with us... 
not so catchy 
But great for starting training....
I'm looking forward to helping out
you can never have enough ground crew...
for recovery of earth drawn aircraft 
With corn going in the field this year it may be a challenge

All systems are GO for starting instruction next Wednesday, 03/May 6pm.
I look forward to another exciting season.

If last evenings weather is any indication of future student nights to come, it is going to be a great flying season.
