Fixed Base of Operations. The place where you get gas etc at the airport - Eastern Cincinnati Aviation, Inc.

In this case I69 is Clermont County Airport, Batavia Ohio (like RSW is FAA’s designation for Ft Myers Florida airport, etc.).

It is also the home to Sporty’s Pilot Shop, probably the largest pilot gear catalog company.

They have Sporty’s Academy - a pilot training facility. My son is taking flying lessons - squeezed between football practice and Scouts!

Whew! I am relieved it wasn’t something super easy! I am a ex-Navy guy, so FBO for me was always moving around!

One of my bucket list things is to solo an airplane. Don’t know if I ever will. But I’ll tell you this: You are one hell of a dad to enroll him in flying lessons.
