Post # 18 - CAP Activity & Flight

Last Wednesday, the 9th, the Civil Air Patrol helped the Wyoming National Guard with an emergency exercise. The scenario was that Denver, Colorado had a devastating earthquake and evacuees were flown into Salt Lake. We posed as evacuees who were distraught and had to go through the process of registering with Red Cross, etc. It was a fun experience and later we got a tour of a C-130. Here are some pics.

It was fun seeing some of the "injured people".

The unlucky few casualties that didn't make it.

Also, yesterday the 14th, I flew to Tooele Valley, just south of the Great Salt Lake, then flew into Ogden for a few more practice approaches. My friend Jake from work came with me and he was really excited. I guess that day at work when he went in it was the first thing he talked about. Now my manager is hitting me up for some flights. Guess I am going to have to start charging. Tomorrow is my stage III check for instrument flying, then after that is the check ride for my Instrument Rating! Wish me luck!
