Congratulations!

We've got two people to congratulate today. First of all there is Param Singh, who passed his Multi Engine Flight Test. The other is James Bowden who completed his First Solo! Way to go guys!

The weather hasn't been that nice this week but I'm sure everyone is hoping that it will improve, I know I am.

Also, just as a heads up, I will be leaving for school in less than a week. I'll do my best to update the blog from afar if everyone so wishes.

ATTENTION ALL SPECTRUM ALUMNI!

To all Spectrum Alumni out there, we want to share your experiences as Commercial Pilots with other Spectrum fans and students. If you graduated from Spectrum and went on to become an Airline Pilot, notable Charter Pilot, Military Pilot, Show and/or Stunt Pilot, or anything of that general idea we would love to hear from you.

Please take a look at our facebook page (linked under 'Spectrum Fanpage' seen above) and contact us. We will be leaving a spot for all to upload pictures and experiences. Or you can send us the pictures and stories and we can do it for you.

If you are friends/family with or know of someone who went on to excel in an aviation career please have them contact us or contact us on their behalf. Thanks!

Gold Wings Club

New Promotion!! We've created what we call the 'Gold Wings Club'. Membership is open to all RENTAL Pilots (Licensed Private Pilots who are not currently Commercial training) who fly at Spectrum. What membership entails is a free annual, which normally costs approximately $254, and 10% off ALL flights. You must be asking, "Lindsey, what is the cost of this fantastic deal?" Well, I'll tell you. The low, low cost of this super special deal is $500/year. If you fly an hour or more per month you will most definitely benefit from this special.

The Gold Wings Club is a great way to save money while building hours (which can be later put towards a Commercial License). If interested, call in or come in to sign up with one of our staff members!

Congratulations to all of you. These are all big accomplishments.

Secondly, there are two new additions to the Spectrum staff I'd like to mention. Matt Kelly (mentioned above) is our newest Ramp staff member and Emily Alligood is our newest Desk staff member. Feel free to welcome both of them by saying hello or introducing yourself.

Long Weekend

Hey all! I hope everyone has enjoyed their long weekend, whether you went flying, out of town, or just relaxed at home. The weather seemed to hold out for most of the weekend, save for a few rough patches, and we had a fair amount of flights going.

On a different note, we had the summertime equivalent of high school flights today. Sidrabene Camp is the first summer camp to have their campers go up in our aircraft. The ages ranged from 8-18 and judging by all the smiling faces, I assume that they had a good time.
