๐ŸŒŸ STEM: Building Aviation!
Did you know you donโ€™t have to be great with math to have an incredible career in aviation? Airports and business needs workers enthusiastic about aviation. The world of flight needs drone operators, drone engineers, airport operators, large drone mechanics, designers, scientistsโ€”even creative problem-solvers! The list of uses with drones and aviation electrification is staggering. From Agriculture to Sports Teams, drone operators are at a critical jobs juncture.

โœˆ๏ธ Risk-Takers: When the Spirit of St. Louis Almost Didnโ€™t Happen
๐Ÿ–ผ๏ธ Picture this: Itโ€™s 1927. A mail pilot no one took seriously walks into a room with a bold ideaโ€”to cross the Atlantic alone. Every other competitor has had mounds of cash, a team to fly with, and top-tier aircraft. This mail pilot has financial backers, and almost nothing else. The odds are stacked against himโ€”until one man, Frank Mahoney, makes a decision that would change history. He had recently hired Donald A. Hall from Donald Douglas in Santa Monica, California. Mahoney assesses the two: Engineer and Pilot. Hall wasnโ€™t a drinker. Neither is Lindbergh. Both are focused, disciplined, and shared an unspoken understanding of flight and science. Hall has critical knowledge of ocean flying and piloting. Lindbergh understands engineering and mechanics. What of the two men's connection? Do they have chemistry? Yes...Its a spark between the two that catches Mahoney's eye. It will turn an underdog, into the greatest aviation legend of all time. ๐Ÿ”ฅ Do you bet on the impossible? Do you sweeten the deal, and take the bet on two you recently met? (which is what Mahoney does, then shortly after, accepts Donald Halls assessment to move the time frame up from 90 day delivery, to 60 days. Working the crews 24/7 and the engineer, w/o asking for more money from Lindbergh) As an business owner, do you risk it all on an unknown plane, a pilot-dreamer, and an new chief engineer? ๐Ÿšจ Drop your thoughts belowโ€”what do you guess made Mahoney say โ€œYesโ€, when others said โ€œNoโ€?๐Ÿšจ @Casey Gultom @Wendy Wiseman @Frank Kraljic @Dawn Nave @Misty Morrison

Time to start the engine!
๐Ÿ“ฝ๏ธ๐Ÿ›ฉ๏ธThe Wright Whirlwind J5c was the jewel of the spirit St. Louis. (Model NYP). It was a radial type air cooled engine that had proven itself during 50 hours endurance flights without failure or loss of performance. It was so good infact, that the majority of competitors selected it as their powerplant As opposed to the hulking large oil-cooled engines of world war I. ๐ŸŒ It was SO reliable, that the company created a special series 'c' for commercial use for the Orteig Prize competition. โœˆ๏ธ WHAT DO YOU NOTICE in these photos? @Frank Kraljic @Pace Ellsworth
