During Bonanzas to Oshkosh, Mark F Devine Photography- a local photographer - shot aerial and event photography so we could capture the fun and madness of ! His highly skilled and professional work is displayed on his website and available for purchase. They're a must to check out!

Mark has an detailed explanation of all the behind-the-scenes planning that was required months in advance of the event. It's not as simple as it might look and requires A LOT of coordination with the FAA, La Crosse Regional Airport, control tower and event planners. We're grateful for Mark's diligence executing a safe and compliant photo shoot so we could capture all the excitement of B2OSH!

BIG congrats to Aaron and Bruce on completing their first solo! They actually did this a couple weeks ago, but we’re a little behind 😬

Bruce has worked so hard to get to this point and his perseverance is inspiring! We can’t wait to see him achieve the next step in his journey.

Aaron has been flying almost 5 days a week, something you don’t see often! That type of motivation and diligence is rare especially with families, careers and all the other distractions of life.

We love watching our flight students achieve their goals! Everyone’s path is a little different but it doesn’t matter how long it takes or the twists and turns along the way. ✈️☁️ Congrats to their instructor, Kyle, too!
