The Empire State Aerosciences Museum will be hosting its monthly all-you-can-eat breakfast on Saturday January 19th from 8:30 am to 10:30 am with a talk by Fred Lee, President and Founder of Professional Training International, a flight school for aircraft owners will speak on the “Serious Confessions of a Traveling Flight Instructor.”
In addition to surveying his long career, Lee will explore the recent changes in the history of general aviation flight training.
Traveling through all 48 states in North America plus Canada, Mexico, the Bahamas, France, Holland and Germany, Lee has trained hundreds of pilots and aircraft owners, from single engine pistons to multi-engine turbines. Mr. Lee has logged over 35,000 hours and is a founding writer for IFR Refresher magazine and a contributor to Northeast Weekend Flyer.
The Empire State Aerosciences Museum is located at the Schenectady County Airport in the Town of Glenville, at the site of the former General Electric Flight Test Center. Dedicated to interpreting aviation, particularly as related to New York State, the museum offers visitors a variety of educational experiences, including interpretive exhibits, a collection of restored aircraft, the State’s largest aviation library and an airpark with over 20 aircraft.
The breakfast menu will include pancakes, french toast, eggs, sausage, potatoes, juice, coffee, tea and more. Lee’s talk begins at 9:30 am.

As a retired air traffic controller I would have loved to attend this meeting, if not for a scheduling conflict. I hope to visit there soon, WX permitting.
