Jay,

I am thinking your hotel is just the ticket for a "fly-in aviation
training experience". :-)

I've been looking for yet another opportunity to take the
"Colorado Pilots Association"
"MOUNTAIN FLYING - HIGH ELEVATION AIRPORT OPERATIONS GROUND SCHOOL"
"on the road". :-)
We've been to Oshkosh and Sun-N-Fun, Colorado, Nebraska, Wyoming,
Oklahoma and other states.

CPA figures they need 30 or more paid participants for 2 or more days,
at $145 each, to break even. (May be a bit more because of travel).
It is an 8 hour ground school, and moves right along!

Would you be willing to supply a meeting room, and a hotel room for
each of two instructors? (Your loss leader), to pickup the fly-in
overnight participants. I figure the instructors would come in the
day before to do setup, and leave the morning after the last seminar.

Say... a Friday, Saturday and Sunday (possibly Monday) in January or
February, at your hotel, in Iowa. Then, they come to Colorado on
their schedule to fly with me (or other local CPA instructors)... I
have C182, C172 and an Arrow available to rent, or they could use
their own aircraft.

We would have to advertise in Iowa and surrounding states, and on the
Colorado Pilots web site, to get 3 (or more) days of participants.

The 2005 schedule and locations looked like this:

In addition, we conducted another MF-HEAOGS at Greeley, and used some
of the material for two Civil Air Patrol mountain flying and
search-and-rescue courses, this year.

Best regards,

Jer/ "Flight instruction and mountain flying are my vocation!" Eberhard
