    New High School Aviation Club

    Three of my friends and I have started an Aviation Club at our High School to share our passion for flying and educate other students about airplanes and various careers related to aviation. To cut to the point, I am wondering if there is anyone out there who is willing to donate old sectional charts, UNAIRWORTHY instruments, airplane parts, and other aviation related items. Also, suggestions and hints are appreciated so we can make the club better.

    Thank you!

    Right now there are about 10 students, 13 if you include me and the other two guys who started it. We're in the Cleveland area.

    Joe, that is really cool! What a great idea! We did something similar when I was in high school and the local FBO actually donated an old room in the community hangar for us to use as a classroom/club house. We decorated it with posters and hung models from the ceiling. It was really cool. Small town so it never grew beyond a dozen kids, but it was a blast.
    Good luck on your endeavor!

    Well.... I have some sectionals, some non-functioning instruments, some plotters, some magazines, some videos, some CDs and some training aids. But, if you are being picky, maybe you don't want my stuff....

    No, I just didn't want you to send something that we wouldn't use and have you waist your time and money. Those are all great! Thank you!
