Yakima Air Terminal

YAKIMA AIR TERMINAL more about what a commercial service airport is. We talk about how the Airport is run and how it impacts the local economy. So, it is a wonderful opportunity to get them down here; instead of sitting with their books, they see it actually op- erating.We are also working to ensure that they can continue to expand their flight program here. And typically, the students who are instrument pilots and commercial pilots will fly over to Ya- kima because the neighboring airport that they launch from does not have instrument landing systems or an air traffic control tower. So they fly over here real quick and do a lot of instrument approach training as well as commercial flight operations out of our Yakima Airport and they get their flight lessons done. So that close coor- dination within the flight schools is key to make sure that we can address the pilot shortage nationwide.” PREFERRED VENDORS n McCormick Air Center www.mccormickaircenter.com Opening in 2003, McCormick Air Center is an EPIC fuel dealer and the only full service FBO in Yakima with both full service and self-service fuel for 100LL and Jet A.We are a DESC contractor.We provide flight training through CFI as well as maintenance for GA aircraft. n Generation Jets www.generation-jets.com n CubCrafters info@cubcrafters.com CUB CRAFTERS.COM
