Pilot's Club to fly new airplane
By JACK MUNSCH
Collegian Staff Writer
If Nittany Valley skies clear up for a
day or two, students here might see a
handsome new plane droning around.
The newly-organized Penn State
Pilot's Club has leased a bright red
single-engine Grumman Trainer, but has
been unable tb fly it into University Park
Airport becatise of rain and low clouds.
The plane is now in Lancaster.
Andy Pierce, president of the club,
said the plane was scheduled to arrive
last Tuesday, and then again last Thurs
day. He said it will now fly in over term
break and club members will be flying
by registration week of Winter Term.
Acc9rding to Pierce, the club's pur
pose is `,`to provide inexpensive aviation
to the students and staff of Penn State."
After an initial membership fee of
about $lB, Pierce said the plane will be
available for $l2 per hour.
About 15 of the club's 30 members

already have flying certificates, and
they will teach the others tIW mechanics
of flying. Besides training, te plane will
be available for rentalS.
The plane, which cost $13,000 new, and
is being leased for about $6,500, cruises
at 133 miles per hour, and climbs past
12,000 feet.
Pierce said the Nittany Valley is a
beautiful region for flying, although the
weather is notoriously bad. Another
danger, according to Pierce, is the
similarity of all the valleys in central
Pennsylvania, and the possibility of mis
taking one, valley for another.
"I've seen people land at University
Park Airport who are looking for the
landing strip at Penn's Cave, about 25
miles away," Pierce said.
Pierce, who hopes to receive his
license as a flight instructor within a few
weeks, said that University Park Airport
has a better location to serve as a
regional airport than Mid-State Airport.
Mid-State Airport, built during World
War II as an emergency landing strip for
cargo planes crossing the mountains, is
\7OO feet higher •than 'University Park
and often several degrees colder.
Pierce said Mid-State's flight services
are good, but its mountaintop location•in
Black Moshannon State Forest is
precarious.
On the other har4 Pierce said the
University Park Airport now has poor
facilities, but has better weather and a
smooth landing strip, which are
necessary for the University's two
private jets.
University Park Airport is owned and
financed by the University, and rents six
single-engine planes at $l9 per hour.
According to Pierce, the Pilot's , ,Club
will operate a ground flight school
stressing aviation safety. He said he's
aware of the fate of the earlier flying
club which dissolved 12 years ago when
two members died in a crash near
Harrisburg.
