Shane, the son of John Sater, was first inspired to fly at the age of six by his grandfather, who was building a Falco home-built airplane in the basement. Shane’s next goal is to complete his private pilot training so he can take his dad for a flight. The holiday season is upon us. The mad dash is on to get the latest, greatest gifts and bake the best cookies and make the finest meals of the year. If you feel like you need a little break, take to the skies and get above it all! The cold, crisp air on these blue-bird days is perfect for leaving the mayhem behind and enjoying the peace and joy of flying. If you are looking for that perfect gift from a local business, Northern Air offers gift certificates for any provided services such as scenic flights, introductory flight lessons, aircraft rental, or even aircraft maintenance. Ground school is starting on January 5. This course will equip students with the knowledge required to take the private pilot FAA written exam. Classes will be held on Thursday evenings from 5:30 to 8:30,and last 15 weeks. For more information or to sign up for the course call or stop by Northern Air (208) 267 4359, or visit www.northernair.biz. The local EAA club would like to thank all the applicants for the Youth Aviation Scholarship. Remember to be at the airport on December 13 for interviews! Happy Holidays from Northern Air! |
