Solo! Bradley Wells

Submitted by SBeach on August 21, 2010 - 05:42

The Scholarship Committee is extremely pleased to announce that Bradley Wells solo'd on Friday afternoon 9/20. (His sixteenth birthday!) His mother and instructor, Stephanie Wells, turned the keys over to him late in the afternoon and he proceeded to make two very nice take-offs and landings. This was done with the added pressure of having several of chapter 43's members watching. They happened to be at the Erie airport doing setup work for the Erie Open House.

Congratulations Bradley, we will be lookinig forward to hearing about your check ride in the near future.

I saw a movie that got little or no press that I thought was pretty good. It was about a bush pilot in northern Canada. The movie was called "Snow Walker". I recomend it.
