The Rusty Pilot’s Event was a SUCCESS!
The Chesterfield Pilots Association hosted an AOPA Rusty Pilots training event on Saturday September 13, 2015. The purpose of this event was to bring the pilots in the area together who may have not been able to fly lately and get a refresher on things they need to know to get back in the air again. Over 50 people attended the seminar that was presented by three very knowledgeable CFIs (Matt Welch, Becky Luther & John Phelps). The three hour seminar counts towards the ground portion of a BFR and everyone who attended received a certificate and endorsements for their logbooks. Following the event the WingNuts Flying Club sponsored and prepared an excellent cookout lunch of hamburgers, hotdogs, chips & drinks that were enjoyed by everyone! During this time local Aviation Medical Examiners (AMEs) & CFIs were available to answer any questions.
