100 hour – CSP’s new Sport Cruiser reached its 100 hour in less than one month. The stylish looks, easy handling characteristics and outstanding performance has quickly made this a crowd pleaser. Come see what all the excitement is about!
May 13, 2007 - Chuck Wilson has joined the Chesapeake Sport Pilot staff. Chuck is one of the most experienced instructors in the area with over 15,000 hours. We are very excited to have him on board!
May 11, 2007 – Tim Adelman flew down to Indiantown, Florida to pick up the new SportCruiser. The trip took 12 hour due to the fact that tropical depression Andrea provided 40 kts headwinds for most of the trip home and because of significant deviations that were required to avoid smoke from fires in northern Florida . Tim made the trip with only two stops, a true testament to the comfort and range of the SportCruiser.
