Welcome to the home of the
Smokey Pilots of Northwest Florida!
("Smokey" because we fly Fire Patrols virtually everyday)
Our Missions:
Fire Patrols: Flown around the entire Eglin
Air Force Base
Ranges.
Cadet Orientation Rides: Introduce young
teens to the thrill of flying.
Search and Rescue: Help find downed planes, missing
persons, and/or
activated ELTs
Low Level Jet Route Surveys: Find and report
obstructions so
low level military training jet routes are safe.
Disaster Reconnaissance: Especially
after hurricanes.
Fly-A-Teacher: so they can take the thrill
of flight to their classrooms.
Our Airframes:
CAP uses this type of airframe because it is stable, has high
wings for better downward visibility and is relatively slow; all of which are conducive for search, rescue, education
and training.
| Preflight inspection is complete. |

| Let's go fly! |
