On the Topic of Hokie Flying

So, have I been the only one noticing all the airplanes flying around over the school? I got interested and followed one as I saw it flying back to the airport. I talked to the guy at the airport there,... it was very refreshing to walk into the airport and not have to go through a metal detector! The man said that they there are several people who teach VT students how to fly, so I got a few business cards. He also pointed me towards the Hokie Flying Club and New River Aero, which has a local hanger. I have seen fliers for New River Aero flight lessons, so I think I will have ample places to do research on the Hokie Flying and the general airplane community in Blacksburg.

Oh, and I also figured out that I missed an Air Show the first weekend here at Tech (August 21-24). They apparently had a few old warbirds and other replicas, which I definitely saw flying overhead, but didn't get to see up close. Oh well, maybe next time!
