Beautiful Coastline Flight from St. Simons Island, GA to Stuart, FL with Space Shuttle Detour

Duty Calls - Time to work! In this video, we cut short our 14th wedding anniversary weekend in St. Simons Island, GA (KSSI) to get back to Stuart, FL (KSUA) to attempt to save a finger of a patient and fellow friend of aviation that needed urgent attention. The flight turned out to be a beautiful morning coastline flight with an ATC detour right over the space shuttle landing strip. Also, as we announced on our last video, we will be giving away a $1,000 aviation training scholarship to one lucky subscriber as soon as our channel reaches 1,000 subscribers. For those that have already responded, great work; we have very much enjoyed reading the scholarship entries so far. For those that have not yet entered, details of the scholarship are found below: The first scholarship will be awarded as our channel reaches 1,000 subscribers, so if you are interested in our content, and wish to support our channel and our cause (fostering the enthusiasm, training, and growth of the aviation community), help us to reach this 1,000 subscriber milestone by SUBSCRIBING and LIKING the video! If you are already a subscriber, and know any pilots-in-training or individuals dreaming to be a pilot, please consider sending them a link to our channel and encourage them to submit an entry for the scholarship!

Scholarship Rules:

Final winner will be chosen solely at our discretion.
