Build Your Aircraft Construction And Restoration Skills This
Fall
EAA's SportAir
Workshop's offer an opportunity to practice your skills and
techniques in aircraft building and restoration. SportAir workshops
are scheduled this fall in Georgia, Maryland, California, Colorado,
Wisconsin, Florida, Illinois and Texas.
Incorporating projects that tailor to beginners and experts,
these one-to three-day courses focus on the skills needed to build
various aircraft components, with the necessary tools and materials
provided.
SportAir workshops place a high emphasis on "hands-on"
activities, with most courses spending only 25 percent of the total
time in lecture and discussion.
As always, EAA members are able to participate in these valuable
educational workshops at a preferred rate. Pre-registration is
required, as class sizes are limited.
