About this event
Taking off and landing on a grass runway is an important skill that is too often practiced only in theory! We’re going to take 20 Aero Elite students to a grass strip airport for a day practicing on the real deal. There’s going to be plenty of food and fun!
We are aiming to have this event in the late spring/early summer and we’re working out the details and logistics. If you’re a pilot/student interested in attending, add your email in the form to be notified when we post more information.
