Aero-Linx!
Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough, if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this is done on the Internet.
The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into cyber-aero-space for awhile.
Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via Aero-Linx. Suggestions for future Aero-Linx segments are always welcome, as well.
Aero Linx: The Missouri Pilots Association
The Missouri Pilots Association is one of the oldest, largest and most active non-profit pilot organizations in the country. We were founded in 1953 with many lofty goals. Chief among those was to promote continuing education and safety among our member pilots in Missouri. But, it has never been all work and no play for MoPilots. Our members meet monthly in one of our 12 chapters across the state for camaraderie, to listen to interesting speakers, and to plan future aviation events. The members of the Missouri Pilots Association work closely with other aviation organizations across the country and in the state. We are the lead sponsor for State Aviation Day when pilots and non-pilots converge on Jefferson City to meet with our legislators. Our Educational Endowment Fund sponsors a scholarship for a teacher each year so that he/she is better equipped to integrate the various aspects of aviation into the curriculum. In short, we are known around the State of Missouri as the voice of General
Aviation.
