Mad Science Camps offers a wonderful summer program for kids of all ages. This year my son enrolled in Flight Academy and was excited to share with his instructors that his dad is a Pilot! Turns out the instructors were just as excited and invited my husband to share his knowledge of aviation with the children. As a general aviation pilot my husband brought in some very interesting items to share including IFR training glasses and headsets to try on, aeronautical maps and charts, a fuel tester, and a pilot checklist. He also provided a fun aviation alphabet worksheet for the children to write out their names phonetically using the aviation alphabet! They also received a diagram of aviation parts for a jumbo jet and for a small high wing airplane. The children were completely engaged and excited to ask lots of questions! Hoping to inspire these young children, I think my husband did a fantastic job and my little pilot said he loved having Daddy at summer camp!
