It can be tough to get a flying club off the ground, and that’s why a group known as Ground Effect Advisors is addressing the problem. Today, GEA announced that Zachary Piech of Wilmington, North Carolina has won $3,500 in donated products and services to help launch his flying club, Cape Fear Flyers. GEA will also provide expert guidance in establishing rules and procedures for Piech’s club.
Donations for the project, which elicited 126 applications, come from AOPA, David Clark, Sporty’s Pilot Shop, Signature Flight Support, Cirrus Aircraft, Schedule Master, PilotEdge and LiveATC.net. All the sponsors’ products and services are dedicated to getting Cape Fear Flyers started.
