TOP THREE REASONS NOT TO DONATE TO ABLE FLIGHT!

1. I'd rather donate to a politician's campaign...

2. If I don't eat another fast food meal this month I may fade away...

3. If I donate $25 I'll have to cut back on my yearly flying by 20 minutes!

Congratulations to Able Flight pilot Jessica Scharle
Jessica recently earned her certification as a Ground School Instructor.


Who Do You Help When You Donate To Able Flight?
People like wounded veteran Chris Gschwendtner. Chris is a two-time recipient of the Purple Heart. Now, thanks to his Able Flight Career Training Scholarship, he is in school studying for his Light Sport Repairman Certificate.


Able Flight thanks Jet Aviation for being a founding and continuing sponsor of our scholarship fund. 
There's a reason why companies like Jet Aviation support Able Flight each year- because our program works.

FOREFLIGHT SPONSORS
ABLE FLIGHT

LEADING AVIATION SOFTWARE PROVIDER WILL PROVIDE FLIGHT PLANNING SOFTWARE FOR STUDENT PILOTS

"We're honored to have ForeFlight  join us in our mission to use aviation to change the lives of people with disabilities," said Charles Stites of Able Flight. "ForeFlight's co-founders Tyson Weihs and Jason Miller are both pilots, and they clearly understand  the impact that learning to fly can have on  people who only need an opportunity to prove their abilities.  It has been amazing to see their company's growth over the last few years, and we're excited that our student pilots will have the opportunity to use their software."

 Jason Miller, co-founder of ForeFlight said, "ForeFlight is exceptionally pleased to help Able Flight in their efforts.  Flying is true freedom, and Able Flight provides that freedom to so many wonderful people.  It's truly a privilege to sponsor that work."

Congratulations to Able Flight pilot Tyler Ryan

Tyler is just a few months away from earning an aviation degree and recently qualified to enter the FAA's Air Traffic Control training program in Oklahoma City.

After earning his license as one of the first Able Flight pilots to train at Philly Sport Pilot, Tyler returned to  a community college in New York, and then transferred to earn a four year degree at Dowling College.
