For the 2nd consecutive event this July, another product of UST Manila, achieved the most coveted feat in a pilot’s early flying career, the “1st Solo Flight”.
In the morning of July 19, 2016, Student Pilot Roy Paolo Capili Matias, 21 years of age, flying Cessna 172, RP C-5034, was released for 1st solo flight after logging a total 16 flying hours by no less than the Head of Pilot Training, Senior Flight Instructor, Col Arnel Borres.
S.P. Roy Matias who reported two (2) weeks ago at LEIAAI will now be officially integrated in the elite list of the young and daring eaglets who have braved the variable flight path in the exploration and conquest of the clear blue skies of Poro Point, San Fernando Airport, La Union.
