Promoting the school @ Air & Motor Show

An event focusing mainly on cars, bikes and aerobatic airplanes called Air & Motor Show was organized today at Malmi. Since our school's operating from there and has lately been doing a lot of work trying to gain more publicity, it was decided we would promote our airline and private pilot's courses at the event. I was of course one of the volunteers who immediately signed up for the task. I've been promoting gliding on behalf of Nummela Gliding Centre before and have always liked to do this sorts of things so I was very happy to attend!

We had a nice stand with our King Air at the front. Back at the hangar there was a Piper on which people could jump into and look at the interior. Inside our hangar there was also four C152's on display. We mainly promoted and handed flyers on our school's new PPL course with the conditional possibility to continue on to professional pilot training after the course.

Our stand and hangar with the King Air C90 on display. This one has an extended nose with a cargo hold making the plane look like a bird with a beak.
Introducing the Piper to a young boy, although I haven't even flown this one yet :)
I spent quite a while on the captain's seat of our King Air, checking everything out.. A very fine airplane, can't wait to fly this next year!
I took a little detour and checked out the competing flight school's Cirrus SR22, a nice and modern IFR-, G1000- and anti-ice equipped four-seater.
