Sporty’s Awards Next Flight Crew Scholarship

Private Pilot With Desire To Give Back To The Aviation Community Receives $2,500 Award

Jeff Goodsill of Sudbury, MA, is the recipient of Sporty’s latest $2,500 flying scholarship awarded through his membership in Sporty’s Flight Crew program. Jeff is a Private pilot working toward his Instrument Rating and is flying a Cessna 172 Skyhawk through the Aero Club of New England at the Hanscom Field Airport in Bedford, MA (KBED).

Jeff’s interest in flying was sparked at an early age through home simulators. His growing passion for aviation would later translate to gliders and airplanes. Jeff currently devotes most of his time to studying for his Instrument Rating with the goal of completing his training this summer. Following instrument, he intends to transition into Commercial pilot followed by Certified Flight Instructor training so that he can give back to the aviation community.

“My overall goal is to become one of the best flight instructors out there,” remarked Goodsill. “I believe my passion for flying will be transferred to many others. Like others before me, I will give back what has been passed onto me for the benefit of many.”

Sporty’s Flight Crew is a three-level customer benefit program that rewards customers with access to training programs, unlimited free shipping, an on-call personal Sporty’s shopper, and more. The top two levels (gold and platinum) include the opportunity to apply for a $2,500 flying scholarship.
