Marshall University’s Bill Noe Flight School will welcome its first of several planned multi-engine aircraft, a Piper Seminole, at approximately 11 a.m. Friday, Feb. 18.
Noe himself will take delivery of the plane at Piper’s facility in Vero Beach, Florida, fly it to West Virginia International Yeager Airport and taxi to the flight school’s hangar on the airport grounds with what is expected to be a large and warm West Virginia welcome.
“This is an incredibly important milestone for the university, the flight school and our up–and–coming aviators enrolled in the school,” Noe said. “We are so pleased to be able to add this plane to our fleet as we grow our capabilities. This addition is just another example of the commitment we are making to provide Marshall University, the region and the nation the highest level of advanced education that will help propel our students into the aviation industry with the very best tools to excel on an enlightened and rewarding career.”
Media and invited guests will be able to view the facility, both the single and multi-engine planes, and a demonstration of the university’s flight simulator. Light refreshments will be available. Please join us for this very special occasion.
