Subject: Ready to go!

We completed training today and everyone is ready to start the 2008 season next Saturday, May 3 and Sunday May 4th. We are totally booked up for both days with only the 2-22 available.

Next Saturday we are celebrating the accomplishments of Colonel Oakley Kelly, first aviator to fly non-stop across the USA. Col. Kelly grew up in Grove City in the 1900s.

The theme of the day is Food, Fun, Flying from 10-6 on Saturday the 3rd. A car cruise will be on the field also.

I've been out of town for a week attending school at the Hawker Beechcraft factory on the KingAir 200GT and the Proline 21 Avionics that it comes equipped with these days. 6 days of classroom and full motion simulator work to master the basics. Our simulator period started at 2130 and ended at 0230. By the third night I was a zombie. We return to the factory on the 5th to pick up the new machine.

See you at the airport. Steve.
