Chapter Donates support for a Flight Simulator
 
 
Members of the Tidewater Chapter donated their time and resources to build a flight simulator for the cadets in the Grassfield HS JROTC program in Chesapeake, VA.  The simulator has two programs, one to simulate aerial combat and another to fly different types of aircraft (from a crop duster to the space shuttle).   The simulator as really added to the enthusiasm and helps demonstrate classroom lessons related to the science of flight commented Senior JROTC Instructor Gordon Strong.
