Perfect weather today!

Our very own N92844 making a cameo. Thanks to our member Ty for helping out with the disaster response! And a thanks to several of our members who helped Ty load up a load of 6 generators and other assorted supplies!

DRC Update as of 2100 ET: Please check out the video to see what the DRC has been up to yesterday and today! Almost 8,000lbs of supplies have been flown & drove in to the affected NC, SC, & GA areas. Special shoutout to ILM & ZID for coordinating donation efforts to send supplies down with our volunteers! An additional shoutout to Cape Fear Coastal Aviation for donating goods for NATCA members as well as Nic Smoak for flying down his PC12 filled to the brim. Now that we have supplies onsite, the next step is to figure out who needs what. We are working through facility rosters to obtain needs and requests. The question we’re getting the most is, “What can I do to help”. While we are NOTHING without our volunteers, please consider monetary donations to help support the relief effort.

Look at that view! 🤩🛩️

Beautiful morning for flying!

One of our members got to take Skylane '844 up to start working on his high performance endorsement and insurance checkout this morning. She flies like a dream! It was a beautiful morning for some flying at GPC, though we got a little wet as we were pushing her back into the hangar!

The airplane has arrived! This photo was taken shortly before departure. Good times ahead!
