Fund a Pilot
and a Veteran
The power of all of us
Instrument Rating, Multi-Engine Rating and Commercial Ratings needed
Objective
Intent: at this point is to help me become a flight instructor. The funding for continuing flight training is almost non-existent. My goal is to raise money to teach others to fly. If you are employed like I am with the USAF, then I could instruct for free. The student gets instruction I get hours and experience. The General Aviation community needs to grow, and adding new pilots is the only way. I can return to the community through teaching. One pilot at a time we can make our community grow. For as little as 1$ per person, you can make this happen. Once the site grows, I want to make it a fund for other new pilots. With funding, comes dreams! Most young pilots can't even think of flying due to cost. I am trying to make a difference, and you can to.
