MEETINGS:
FWSS meets every Tuesday night at 7 pm at the
Meacham Intnl Airport Terminal downstairs. We welcome new members over 18 who are
interested in community action, working with youth and in mission flying. Provide a
real service, instead of just boring holes in the sky building hours! |
|
MEMBERSHIP:
Our squadron typically numbers about 40 strong. Backgrounds range widely from career airline and military pilots to observers
and students - a rich mix of experience & enthusiasm! And if you have kids ages 13-18
interested in aviation, please contact Phoenix Composite Squadron, which is
also located at Meacham Intnl. |
MISSIONS:
Our squadron supports all three legs of the CAP
charter - Emergency Services, Cadet programs & Aerospace Education. Our primary focus
is on the first two, with the heaviest activities in virtually all aspects of CAP mission
flying and also in cadet flying. It makes for a busy group of dedicated volunteers with
something going on almost every day of the week, year-round.
AIRCRAFT:
We are custodians for an excellent 2005 Cessna 182T that is fully equipped to fly
all the missions noted above. (See Aircraft
Info page for details.)
FACILITIES:
Thanks go to Texas Jet for renting us a hangar at Meacham for
our aircraft and letting us use their executive jet facilities for flight planning, and to
Meacham
Airport for
our meeting facilities downstairs in the terminal.
SPONSORS:
Our squadron presently has no financial sponsor
(just dedicated members), but would be proud to have one.
