Young Eagles Flight needed...Great Falls, MT

[Michael Burbidge]

I got an email today, out of the blue, from a woman that lives in Great Falls MT. She said I took her son flying at a Young Eagles event in 2016. The event was at Paine Field in Everett WA. Wow!

I definitely did a Young Eagles event that year.

She asked me if I would be willing to fly to Great Falls and take her son flying again. He has wanted to go again ever since.

While I would love the adventure of flying to Great Falls, I'm not sure I will be able to work it out in the next few months.

Is there anyone in Great Falls that would be willing to take a young person flying? I'm not sure how old he is at this point. So I don't know if it could be done under Young Eagles. I will find out and post it here.

Introductory pilot flight as an option?

If the young man had a Young Eagle flight years ago and is still interested you might suggest she take him to her local airport and find a flight school offering introductory flights. Sounds like time for lessons instead of "another ride".
