Spartan College of Aeronautics and Technology located in Tulsa, Oklahoma, has signed a Training Program Development and Deposit Agreement with Aero Electric Aircraft Corp., referred to as AEAC. Spartan is reserving the first 20 “Sun Flyer” delivery positions and is to help develop a complete training system for the “Sun Flyer” solar-electric training aircraft being developed by AEAC. Here is an opportunity to receive ground training on one of World War II’s greatest airplanes, the B-29 Super Fortress. For those interested in the B-29 Ground School, a two-day class will be open to anyone interested on February 7th and 8th at the Vintage Flying Museum in Fort Worth, Texas. Attendance is priced at only $29. Bristell has introduced a new aircraft to their line-up at the Sebring U.S. Sport Aviation Expo. Called the Bristell TDO, which stands for “Tail Dragger Option”, this aircraft gives owners the utility of a back-country aircraft while retaining a good cruise speed and useful load.
