Flight Training - November 2011 - 12
PREFLIGHT»
This weekend
Places to go, people to see, stuff to...eat!
S
ometimes you just have to get out of the local traffic pattern. So make your next trip an adventure and use the airplane for a fun trip to an airport close to you, either by yourself for a confidence-building solo, or with an instructor as a great cross-country training adventure.

PAINE FIELD EVERETT, WASHINGTON
7B6
Beat off the late fall chill with a big breakfast. The crew at Skylark Airpark puts on a $5 pancake breakfast November 13, starting at 8:30 a.m. With all-youcan-eat pancakes, eggs, sausage, and coffee, you may want to recompute your weight and balance when you leave.
November doesn’t mean airshow season is over. Stuart is hosting its annual airshow on the 12th and 13th from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Or you could come to town early for a night airshow and concert on Friday night (www. stuartairshow.com).
SUA
Fly in to busy SUS for a special seminar most Tuesdays in November with Air Associates of Missouri (www.air associatesmo.com). The event begins at 7 p.m., with topics focused on advanced avionics, including many Garmin G1000 tips and tricks.
SUS
Thinking about buying an airplane or just want to kick some tires? The Arizona Aircraft Expo is held November 11 and 12. See new aircraft and get a chance to meet with aircraft financing, insurance, and other support representatives.
SDL
As a future pilot, it only seems fitting to visit the Future of Flight Museum near Seattle. Explore aviation materials, see an airline flight deck, and check out what’s next in commercial aviation. It’s also a great place to bring kids.
