One of the best things that happen when you join the Experimental Aircraft Association is learning. EAA is not your grandma's tired old schooling. It is lively, fast-paced, fun and often stuff that saves lives. It was like that Monday, January 19, 2009 when the Missoula chapter met for tutoring by Harry LaForge.

 

Harry is President of Hoffman Pilot Center, Inc and a world class flight instructor. His session dealt with the compass as used by pilots. (But you had better know this material even if you don't fly because the north and south are not what Grandma said they were.)

 

The following links will get you to first base:
