Spin Zone / Why masks?
« on: March 11, 2021, 11:52:31 AM »
Why the hell are we still telling vaccinated people to wear a mask?

94% reduction in asymptomatic transfer after vaccination. 

That should be it.  No more masks once you have been vaccinated!

Amazing how we aren’t hearing about this in the media.  90% drop in death rate since April, yet the sky is falling....

If true it looks like Facebook banned him and he lost his job for posting he voted while wearing a MAGA hat and holing a Chick-Fil-A sandwich....

Pilot Zone / Tango Flight - Teen High School RV-12 Build
« on: October 31, 2016, 05:06:27 AM »
I'm going to cut and paste a post I made at the "other" site below. 

As some of you may (or may not) know.  I am a semi-retired Engineer.  I am teaching a High School based Engineering class, at a central Texas school district (Georgetown ISD).  We are doing something that I believe is the first of its kinds in the country (a couple similar, but nothing exactly like this).  We are teaching a college level Aerospace Engineering class, getting kids hands on experience at the local airport (KGTU), and building a Van's RV-12.

I would encourage all of you to take a look at the links below.  This is a really cool program, and the kid are loving it!  We are working to raise the money to fund our first RV-12.  If you can make a donation it would be greatly appreciated.  More is better, but even $5 would be great.  Even if you can't make a donation please take a few minutes and read the AOPA article on us, and a bit about what we are doing.

If anyone would like to make a direct donation (i.e. send a check) please PM me and I'll send you the Tango Flight physical address.  We have partnered with our local EAA #187 chapter so if you send a check to them it is tax deductible.

Thanks for taking a look (see below)

We are making great progress with our first year RV-12 Build!

The kids and the mentors are doing great, really high quality work. We have completed the rudder, the vertical stabilizer, and are working on the stabilator.

We have received and inventoried the Empenage and Fuselage kits, and should have the Wing kit before Thanksgiving break.

The class is setup so that the kids are rotating between the PLTW Aerospace Academics, building the airplane, and interning with local businesses at the KGTU airport. Truly an incredible experience for the kids.

We have had success raising money to pay for the first three kits, but we need to pull the funds together to pay for the finish kit, firewall forward, and avionics kits.

Along those lines, please take a moment and check out the GoFundMe site that we setup.

www.gofundme.com/tangoflight

There is a good writeup with links to the really cool AOPA article on our program and a link to our Facebook page with tons of pictures (one of the students grandparents is a professional photographer!).

If you would like to make a donation on the GoFundMe site it would be greatly appreciated. Even a few dollars, but even if you don't, please take a few minutes to read about the incredible work these kids are doing.

If anyone would like to make a donation and needs it to be tax deductible we can do that as well, please PM me and I'll get you details for that.

Thanks for taking a look!
