The Bluegrass Ultralight Group is proud to announce the...
1998 Kentucky Ultralight Safety Seminar
Saturday January 24, 1998 in Lexington, KY
The singular purpose of this seminar is to promote the safety of every ultralight pilot in and around Kentucky. Newcomers to the sport and old pros are encouraged to attend. General Aviation pilots will learn more about a facet of aviation that may be new to them. This seminar is one of the ways Kentucky aviators are working to reinforce the image of safety conscious ultralight pilots to the general public and other aviation entities.
