Default Come on Sean (F2)

Once again, Sean speaks without knowledge. And Sean, I've been working with, teaching, and helping juniors since I turned 18 and got my CFIG.

As far as I see it, unfortunately, spending that money on the SSA for Jr soaring would be like paying taxes and expecting to go into your community.








I support Jr soaring in my own way. Ways that help the pilots directly..








I bought a $100 T shirt from Boyd Willet to support his Worlds trip this summer. Ill copy the receipt if you show me yours first.








There is $100. What have you done?

Please expand on why you feel that way. All donations to SSA Junior programs go directly to help. Bultman, Cadet, and Kolstad Scholarships have absolutely zero overhead costs, and donations are welcome (especially to the Kolstad) to get them fully funded. As far as I know the same is true for the US Team Fund, and I believe the US Team is usually very good about making sure that our Junior pilots get the support they need to attend the Junior Worlds. Nobody is scraping anything off the top.



I wore Boyd's shirt on Day 2 and Moriarty and had my fastest flight of the contest.
