What to do when your EAA Chapter 478 has a Young Eagles Rally, your KR-2 is still serving a Phase 1, 40-hour sentence, and the local FBO, that you normally rent a C-150, just went out of business? Take off the upper cowl and do a pre-flight show & tell briefing for the 155 kids signed up to fly that morning at the Rally. I did 4 to 8 kids at a time so that the pilots did not need to take the ten minutes or so to do the brief for each flight. That really helped speed up air operations. Plus the kids were able to actually see an aircraft engine. I only did the briefing 27 times. We managed to fly 132 Young Eagles using 14 aircraft before thunder storms shut us down. The other 23 got first debs for our First Responders Rally for August.
