150TH FLYING CLUB RECOGNIZED

摘要

TWO MONTANA PILOTS WHO DIDN'T KNOW EACH OTHER, OPERATED FROM AIRPORTS on opposite sides of Kalispell, but shared the same idea of starting a flying club joined forces to create Bald Eagle Aviation Club-the 150th flying club assisted by the AOPA Flying Clubs Initiative. The city has two airports-Kalispell City Airport straddles the south, and Glacier Park International Airport is to the north. Mike Whitehill, based at Kalispell City Airport, hoped to duplicate his Minnesota flying club experience after a move out west and met with AOPA Flying Clubs Initiative Director Steve Bateman for advice.
