Great Aerospace Education Mentoring Opportunities
CAP pilots will fly teachers at their closest airport for a great flying experience to share with students. This exhilarating program includes a pre-flight briefing explaining the parts and purposes of the airplane -- then, an actual airplane flight, with the teacher given the opportunity to take the controls in the front seat to connect aviation principles with school curriculum to share with students! Two teachers from Stonebridge Elementary participated in a flight September 2024.

Looking Sharp While Serving the Community
Members from the Mobile Composite Squadron, were on hand at the Brewton Municipal Airport Fly-In and Car Show on Saturday, April 18th, to introduce the public to Civil Air Patrol. 1st Lt Rob Taylor and Chaplain – Captain Phillip Williams ensured the aircraft was “show worthy” before they flew the Cessna 172 from it’s base of operations early that morning to attend the event. These events at local airports provide an opportunity for Civil Air Patrol to “make the public aware” of who we are as the Auxiliary of the US Air Force, and our three core missions of Cadet Programs, Aerospace Education, and Emergency Services. Several adults and children had the fortune to sit in the aircraft as the crew explained the controls and instruments.
