PAI and Falcon AeroLab, September 2019

September 18, 2019 By Jennifer Ellsworth

Last week, John taught 8th graders who are in the glider program at the Falcon AeroLab Charter School . These students spend time in the classroom learning fundamentals before applying these concepts while soaring in actual gliders. John teaches in the classroom and also in the air and PAI is honored to be a part of their unique learning experience!

John not only teaches these students in a classroom setting but also soaring in a glider!

Why Take A Course with Practical Aero?

More than ever, today’s aircraft are complex systems requiring skilled professionals to combine their specific expertise into a fully integrated vehicle. The professionals who engineer, test, manufacture, and in any way support these aircraft are accomplished specialists, but often lack an overall understanding of the airplane system as a whole. Fundamental understanding of the airplane-engine system gives you improved ability to communicate more effectively and frame thinking beyond your area of expertise.
