Final Approach
My cousin hears that I'm a pilot and have an airplane and mentions this to her son (I think he's 19). He asked if he could go up with me and of course I consented to do so.
Then I hear he's going in the Army soon and so my sense of urgency is pressing me to make good on it.
As weather, work, plane scheduling and his shipping out date would happen I don't think I'll be able to do it.
So I decide to illicit the help of others.
I contacted an outfit that I'd flown with before that has a wonderful program for young people and let them know that I'll pay for the intro ride for him. He's supposed to go there today (pending transportation).
I sent him to http://www.hj-aviation.com/. It's unfortunate that they don't do a better job of sharing who they are and the organization. So I'm going to do it for them. I plan to return to this thread and share what I know about the partners after getting their permission (yes its worth bragging about in the realm of aviation, but they don't brag on themselves).
Stay tuned...
