Tulip Time Flight Breakfast and Airport Open House
Our Annual Tulip Time Flight Breakfast and Airport Open House will take
place Saturday May 6 from 7am to 10am. The Pella United Methodist Church
will be serving breakfast again this year. Aircraft owners are invited
to pull there aircraft out for static display. Remember this is a great
time to bring friends and family out to the airport.
2005 Pilot Accomplishments
Since it has been a while since our last newsletter we thought it would
be a good idea to tell you about certificates, ratings and endorsements
received last year and so far this year.

Classic Aviation
is a Cirrus Design Authorized Service Center!
Last August
Cirrus Design designated Classic Aviation as a factory authorized service
center. Being one of three service centers in the state for the manufacturer
of the world's best selling aircraft has brought a steady increase in
traffic to our airport making the Cirrus Aircraft
a familiar site around Pella.
New
Aircraft in the Classic Aviation fleet!
We've announced a "new" aircraft in the fleet before but this time we
really mean it. N853DB a 2006 Cirrus SR20GTS is being leased to Classic
Aviation by Dr. David Barnes. Currently Shane is our Cirrus Standardized
Instructor but we are in the process of training our staff to become
a Cirrus Authorized Training Center with multiple instructors. Minimum
solo rental requirements will be an instrument rating and completion
of a transition training course. If you haven't seen this aircraft and
all its safety features be sure to check it out next time you are at
the airport.
