A truly sentimental place as the airport is located right behind my grandparents' home. I am forever grateful to Katy and her husband Kurt for this most special of my lifetime events. There is no better flight instructor than Katy Crihfield. We thank Katy for her service as a Naval pilot. In addition to flight instruction, she is also a master teacher of physics. It was so great to also meet Katy's two dogs, Olivia and Fiona, as we are all animal lovers too! This marks the beginning of learning with K2 Aviation, LLC and to many more safe and wonderful flights! A special video presentation will be aired in the coming days. I hope you will all enjoy the flight! Thank you Katy and Kurt! ~ Kyle O'Malley

Students who learn stick-and-rudder flying in the smallest, simplest airplanes with just steam gauges can later advance to fly any aircraft in the world. We believe in starting with fundamental airmanship skills before working up to a glass cockpit, multi-engine, or jets should that be your goal.

The Post - Pandemic Airline Boom: A Short Review of Industry Insights and Career Opportunities was top flight event all the way. Special thanks goes out to Greg Aretakis, President of Midwest Express Airlines for inviting me. Greg was able to share some of the history of Wisconsin Aviation which was informative. Special thanks goes out to Dr. Chris Johnson who was the seminar speaker. Chris provided an airline industry overview and discussed the great career pilot opportunities and more important the "How To" in becoming a professional pilot. Special acknowledgements go out to Mike Jacobs, Jeff Balm, Mike Kern, Jim Notstad, and Chris as well as all the staff at Wisconsin Aviation for their tour guide assistance and sharing industry insights with others and me. The event was well attended with the attendees showing a lot of enthusiasm for the program. As I spoke with the individual leaders I could sense one future outcome; Wisconsin Aviation is on its way to becoming a Top 5 national program. Their program objectives align to Wisconsin way, becoming one of best and taking the industry lead focused on achieving total excellence. David Soley DivIHN Integration

    My daughter has been riding at Sun Fire Stables for 3 years. We approached during COVID looking…read morefor something outdoors, physical, and safe. We found a new home. My daughter rides consistently and the prices are so affordable that I don't mind. She is being taught everything from grooming and tacking and riding to cleaning up, personal responsibility, safety, and riding etiquette. Every lesson is different. There are different types available for riders of different skill level, type, age, and approach. The stable owner and trainer is hands on, patient, funny and so respectful. I am just never anything but impressed with her and the team of workers and volunteers that help her out (including Husband Dean). We had our first birthday party there this year and it put things just up and over the top. I had to do a review. I cannot recommend this place any higher. Its a home away from home. 5 stars and beyond.
