17.01.2022 Thanks Steve & Thomas for sharing this. Well done Lainey and all involved. Subject: Thank you - Lainey Description: Can you please pass on my thanks to Lainey for letting us know about the Young Aviators Program at AusFly this year. My son Thomas aged 11, told me on the drive back home to Sydney that it was the best three days of his life. Also a big thank you to the Stoogers Glenn for taking Thomas up for a fly in his RV-7, the aviation seed has definitely been planted in this young aviator. And thanks also to Stoogers Mark who took me up for a flight. It has been way too long since I have been behind the stick and it bought back great memories of earlier times. To all the organisers and volunteers, a big thank you, Best Regards, Steve & Thomas Sheekey
