Young Aviator Day at Sywell was very busy. Andre Faehndrich, the organiser, says: “Initial numbers, yet to be confirmed: we flew 150 – 28 adults and 100 Scouts, 22 Non-Scouts, on a total of 122 flights on 19 aircraft flown by 22 pilots. We also carried out lots of STEM (Jet Provost and Scouts (extra badges, etc), Space Store, Static Aircraft and BGA flight simulator which was flat out all day!!). So all-in-all another terrific day. YA 2023 (17th Annual YA) is scheduled for Sat 09/09/23.”
Lots and lots of kids got to meet the T52 in person and lots of fun was had by all. The event was sponsored by AOPA and was a great success inspiring young people.
Many thanks to Viv Porteus for capturing the event to brilliantly.
