‘Lessons Learned from a Lifetime in Aviation’

By Janice Wood · July 11, 2010 ·

John and Martha King will share their “lessons learned from a lifetime in aviation” with the Atlanta Aero Club at its July 15 meeting.

The Kings are instantly recognized throughout the aviation world for their King Schools and the millions of video and digital training courses distributed over the past 30 years. Throughout the years, the Kings have retained their enthusiasm for flying, including piloting their own Falcon 10 aircraft, swapping captain and copilot duties on each leg of their trips.

The meeting is scheduled for noon in the Grand Ballroom of the Capital City Club in downtown Atlanta. The cost is $35 for members and $45 for non-members and includes lunch. A networking hour begins at 11 a.m. with check in at 11:30 a.m. Reservations can be made by calling 800-878-7555 or email [email protected]

The Atlanta Aero Club was founded in 1984 by Lockheed Aircraft Co. executives and is one of the oldest continuous operating aviation clubs in the US. With nearly 250 members, the club has operated as a chapter of the National Aeronautics Association (NAA) since its inception. Recently, the Atlanta Aero Club took a leadership position, along with the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) and the Aircraft Owners & Pilots Association (AOPA), in developing a Georgia State Proclamation declaring October as the official Aviation Appreciation Month to honor the businesses and individuals who contribute to the State’s and Nation’s large aviation industry. The proclamation was signed into effect by Georgia Governor Sonny Purdue. The club meets bi-monthly and regularly invites key aviation business leaders as guest speakers for noon luncheons.
