"Freedom Flight": Down the Hudson Sat. 13:00 "Freedom Tower" (sign-up) [Course]
Statue of Liberty Rick Rescorla at Ia Drang NYC Skyline
If there was a hero on 9/11 it was Rick Rescorla (shown here and decorated at the battle of Ia Drang Valley) He was head of security for Morgan Stanley where he feared such an attack was probable. Rescorla personally led his 2700 people to safety from the south tower on 9/11 (they only lost six people!) He died re-entering the building looking for more survivors.

John Stickle

"Stick" Our Former Chief Instructor

Nov. 10th, 1922 - May 10th, 2013 [obituary]
A wonderful guy, talented pilot and instructor. Stick was an inspiration and mentor to all members that have been around East Hill for a while! I personally started flying with him in 1985 and took instrument through CFI (and instrument CFI) from this gentleman. A life well lived, we will miss him--DStG
