Students and instructors in Idaho Falls enjoyed the annual Christmas party held in the historic Red Baron.  They told stories about flying, the new guys learning from the guys who had been around for a while, everyone remembering their checkrides or the anticipation of checkrides.  Brady Andersen took home the big jar of candy and Gabe Henrie took home the small jar of candy--they both guessed closest to the ORIGINAL number of candy in each jar---AHEM, gentlemen!  Happy Holidays everyone!

 

Welcome aboard Bill!
