IDWEST FLYER M AGAZINE DECEMBER 2016/JANUARY 2017 Published For & By The Midwest Aviation Community Since 1978 midwestflyer.com Building the tools to teach AOPA is trying something that’s never been done before, and we think it will open the door for thousands of young people to discover the fun, excitement, and opportunity that aviation can bring. If you read this column regularly, you’ve heard of You Can Fly—the umbrella program AOPA launched in 2015 to get more people flying and keep them flying. Now AOPA’s High School Initiative, which falls under the You Can Fly umbrella, is taking some bold steps forward. AOPA is partnering with Purdue University to develop four- year aviation STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) curricula for students in grades 9 through 12. The curricula will allow schools to offer up to four different career and technical education pathways —pilot, aerospace engineering, aviation technology, and unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). And each pathway will provide a full four- year course of study that builds on the skills and knowledge developed in each grade. To get things started, we’ll build the ninth-grade level classes. We expect to roll those out in time for the 2018-19 school year, with the higher grade level classes to follow until all four pathways are complete. The classes are being carefully designed to meet not only the high math and science standards many states are implementing to improve student performance, but also the rigorous career and technical education requirements that will allow schools to apply for federal grant money to implement the programs. We’re doing this at a time when it’s sorely needed. Job forecasts anticipate worker shortages in many aviation fields, and schools are scrambling to address growing science and technology skills gaps. Here at AOPA, Cindy Hasselbring is leading the charge on our High School Initiative. She’s a pilot, and a former math teacher who worked with the state of Maryland to bring STEM curricula into schools. As someone who’s spent a lot of time in the classroom, she’s driven to make sure these curricula get kids engaged by showing them just how fun, exciting, and useful math and science are, especially when they’re paired with aviation. Mark R. Baker President & CEO, AOPA *For more information on the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association and the issues that affect your flying go to www.aopa.org today.

    Cessna 172 in Flight 1964 Cessna 172E 1965 Cessna F172G

    Cessna 172 in flight 1964 Cessna 172E 1965 Cessna F172G 1971 Cessna 172 The 1957 model Cessna 172 Skyhawk had no rear window and featured a "square" fin design Airplane Cessna 172 single engine aircraft, flies overhead after becoming airborne. Catalina Island airport, California (KAVX) 1964 Cessna 172E (G- ASSS) at Kemble airfield, Gloucestershire, England. The Cessna 172 Skyhawk is a four-seat, single-engine, high-wing airplane. Probably the most popular flight training aircraft in the world, the first production models were delivered in 1957, and it is still in production in 2005; more than 35,000 have been built. The Skyhawk's main competitors have been the popular Piper Cherokee, the rarer Beechcraft Musketeer (no longer in production), and, more recently, the Cirrus SR22. The Skyhawk is ubiquitous throughout the Americas, Europe and parts of Asia; it is the aircraft most people visualize when they hear the words "small plane." More people probably know the name Piper Cub, but the Skyhawk's shape is far more familiar. The 172 was a direct descendant of the Cessna 170, which used conventional (taildragger) landing gear instead of tricycle gear. Early 172s looked almost identical to the 170, with the same straight aft fuselage and tall gear legs, but later versions incorporated revised landing gear, a lowered rear deck, and an aft window. Cessna advertised this added rear visibility as "Omnivision". The final structural development, in the mid-1960s, was the sweptback tail still used today. The airframe has remained almost unchanged since then, with updates to avionics and engines including (most recently) the Garmin G1000 glass cockpit.
  • Cessna Aircraft Company-A Short History

    Cessna Aircraft Company-A Short History

    Cessna Aircraft Company Info from (address no longer valid) http://www.wingsoverkansas.com/history/article.asp?id=627 Clyde Vernon Cessna, whose 250-year American lineage stemmed from French and German ancestry, was born in Hawthorne, Iowa, December 5, 1879. At the age of two, he traveled the long overland journey with his parents to Kingman County, Kansas, where they settled on a homestead along the Chickasaw River. In early boyhood his aptitudes revealed visionary creativity and mechanical talents that found instant outlets in the dire necessities and rugged demands of pioneer life. In this environment he became a self taught expert in developing and improving farm machinery and farming methods for producing food and for services that were non-existent. As the family increased to nine, the challenges and opportunities presented themselves in an extended world of the early automobile. Becoming the owner of a first horseless carriage, he followed avidly the trends in improvement and in this way became a mechanic salesman and in time operated an automobile sales agency in Enid, Oklahoma. He became captivated with flying after learning of Louis Blériot's 1909 flight across the English Channel. Traveling east to New York, Cessna spent a month at the Queen Airplane Company factory, learning the fundamentals of flight and the art of plane building. He became so enthusiastic about flying that he spent his life savings of $7,500 to buy an exact copy of the Blériot XI monoplane, shipping it west to his home in Enid, Oklahoma. Cessna flew this aircraft, along with others he designed and built, in exhibition flights throughout the Midwest, continuously modifying the planes to improve their performance.
