Flying through the Newsies!

March 31, 2022March 31, 2022Rachael BugellaNo Comments

Rachael BugellaGood morning! I am very glad to be back up to date with our family, here! For the past few weeks, my time has been heavily engaged in the musical, Newsies, that my community has put on! I, among few others, was a part of the pit orchestra. If there are any trumpet players out there, you for sure know how fun and challenging the Newsies soundtrack is! After weeks of rehearsals, we finished the final performance yesterday afternoon with a full house. In regards to aviation, I have accepted an internship at my intended college! I will be working ground crew / general support throughout the summer as… Read More

Visit to the National Museum of the USAF

March 29, 2022March 29, 2022Parker LosureNo Comments

Parker LosureI had a great weekend making the trip up to Dayton to the National Museum of the USAF. Had to close down the place. Got to speak to a SR-71 pilot and a Veteran who flew an F105 in Vietnam (Jim Verstreate) who actually piloted the plane on display. What a neat guy to talk with and I learned a lot from him. He actually had to eject in a different F105 after a complete electrical issue on his plane. I have been there a few times and never had enough time there. It always leaves me wanting more. Thank you so much for the welcome package FMA! I… Read More

Go Boilermakers!

Jorge HernandezHope this post finds you all well! This weekend, my mom and I drove 18 hours from Miami, Florida to Lafayette, Indiana where Purdue University is at. Initially, I thought applying to colleges would be the most difficult part of senior year, but after receiving several rejections and acceptances, I realized that CHOOSING where I would attend has been the most stressful part so far. I spent several longs weeks of researching and paying close attention to the opinions of others. After going on their college tour today however, I finalized my decision of choosing Purdue University. Purdue is the #6 best university for Aerospace Engineering in the US… Read More
