June 13 and 27, 2009 - Aviation merit badge

You know the look your son has when you drive by an airport and he sees those magnificent planes? Turn that curiosity and wonder into a great experience with the BSA Aviation merit badge! Who knows? Maybe this experience could be the beginning of an avid interest in engineering.

Troop 246 needs one or two more Scouts to satisfy a four Scout minimum for the Aviation merit badge. It's offered in two parts. The first part is on the ground at Van Nuys airport. We'll get a tour of the control tower and go over the fundamentals of small plane flight. That's on this coming Saturday the 13th. Then, on Saturday the 27th there will be an optional flight. This is a great opportunity! There are prerequisites.

Interested? Contact Troop 246 Scoutmaster Jeff Burman at jeffrey.burman@nbcuni.com or call at (818) 777-1209.
