It is high summer here in Michigan and we at SMAT continue to press ahead with our power plant curriculum. We have taken apart several engines and put them back together in groups. Flying has picked up with the great weather. I recently had the opportunity to fly with several high school kids in Jackson, Michigan to introduce them to aviation. It is always great fun to let new people get their hands on the aircraft controls for the first time. Only one of the new aviators got sick, and everyone seemed to really enjoy the morning flying.
