Coastal Carolina Airport Hosts Scout Camp Out

Boy Scouts Will Work Towards Aviation Merit Badge

Tents will be popping up on the grounds of Coastal Carolina Regional Airport (KEWN) this weekend as some 220 Boy Scouts camp out at the airport and work towards earning their aviation merit badges.

The scouts and 50 leaders are all part of the Neuse Basin-East Carolina Council of the BSA. encTODAY.com reports that the activities will include a skydiving demonstration, as well as sessions devoted to basic aerodynamics and flight controls, preflight planning, navigation, and control tower operations.

The airport plans a static display of fixed and rotary wing aircraft ranging from home-builts to multi-engine turboprops.

Instruction will be provided by students and faculty from the Craven Community College Aviation Technology Institute, as well as GA and commercial pilots volunteering their time.
