And why would we? One guy I met wanted me to quit flying. Wrong.

Im wondering if you may know something related to flight training that I dont (which to be honest that would be nearly everything related to actual flying) for my youngest daughter.

She had been taking some classes and flew a couple of times but then life happened and the classes got too expensive.

Right about that time during the Biden administration there was a bill signed that had funds for flight training because there wasnt enough “diversity.”

I found the Bessie Coleman Legacy Scholarship at the Aviation Youth Empowerment Foundation but that doesnt seem like quite the same thing.

Do you have any idea what Im rambling about?

Sorry, that was supposed to be a private message just because it wasnt really germane to the thread. Unusually fat fingers today.

I heard that story repeatedly during training. My roommate in training never even made it to her domicile because her redneck boyfriend got so upset that she was going to be a flight attendant.
