If you're interested in aviation - military or civilian - if you're a pilot - in the airforce, at a major airline or in Flight simulator - or if you just get goosebumps by the roar of the Merlin engine, join us to share your experiences.

 

Activities might include;

  • Visiting Air Force Flight Test Center Museum at Edwards AFB, and at the same time trying to get a good view of any of the active planes
  • Driving to Palmdale to see the SR-71
  • Volunteering at Santa Monica Museum of Flight (if they want us)
  • Grabbing a burger an In-n-Out LAX, watching the incoming flights
  • Getting together to fly the F18 simulators in Anaheim
  • Flying with any of the PPLs we have in the group

 

This is a community driven group and anyone can suggest new Meetups.
