Instructor Changes...
|
|
Everyone will soon be seeing a change in instructors on sky scheduler. Sebastian will now be part-time and will be off of sky scheduler. He will still be instructing, just not as often as he was. If you would like to fly with him, you will need to contact him to discuss flight times. We are also requesting that you put his name in the 'Comment' section when scheduling a flight so that we know who you're flying with. |
We will also be welcoming a new instructor. Some of you may have met her in the past couple weeks she's been around. Her name is Kathy, and she is a CFII who just moved back to Connecticut from Michigan where she received her training at Andrews University in Berrien Springs. She has been trained in the Tigers to perform to the same standards as all of our instructors.
Congrats to...

Fuel truck to rescue truck to IFR Certificate!
Since, March 2006 Blue Sky Flight has had many success stories of Pilots receiving multiple licenses and add-ons. On Tuesday July 30th there has been a story of ambition, determination, and hard work that should be shared with everyone.
Most of you who frequent BSF know Jean Paul Chacur. JP was a line service tech when we first met him at Blue Sky Flight 4 years ago when he began training for his instrument rating. While away from his wife and 2 daughters who were living in his native country of Argentina he worked two jobs and spent 7 days a week at the airport working and training. Roughly 2 years ago he began to work for Bridgeport Airport Operations. A year after that JP was finally able to gain US citizenship for his wife and 2 daughters. For the past year, having his family close by his side, he has continued to work full time and train for his IFR. On Tuesday July 30th with 36 hours left until his written test would expire, JP took his IFR checkride and received his certificate.
After 4 years of hard work while juggling multiple responsibilities JP's long time goal was reached. Because of his dedication and his passion for aviation, JP never gave up no matter what the world threw at him.
Everyone involved with aviation and training for certificates knows that it requires a lot of work and focus. It takes a special and passionate person to make that commitment. Everyone at BSF shares this passion and we are proud to have all of our students as customers as well as fellow aviation enthusiasts.
We hope these success stories of ambition and determination will add to your personal motivation. BSF always recognizes when one of our pilots reaches their goal. Next time you see JP or any one of our other newly certified pilots take a moment to congratulate them on their hard work.
Congrats JP!!!
