Our friends. Joe and Lisa Wagner, fly with Gretchen and me in the Beechcraft Bonanza A36 down to Kinston, NC to visit with the folks at Draken International.
Draken International website: www.draken.aero/.
Draken International was founded by Jared Isaacman. Jared commanded Inspiration4, the world's first all-civilian mission to orbit. Named in recognition of the four-person crew that raised awareness and over $240 million for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, this milestone represented a new era for human spaceflight and exploration.
Draken International provides adversary aircraft for the military. These pilots get to play the bad guys against the F15 Strike Eagles out of Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in Goldsboro, NC. Draken's slogan is "Prepare to Prevail".
We interviewed the director of the facility in Kinston, Ernesto Howard, call sign "Carlos". We toured the facility and Carlos gave us details of Draken's mission as an Agressor Squadron! We also got to see the A4 Skyhawks launch on a mission. It is an amazing business, and most people don't even know they exist. Please come join us on our trip to Kinston.
In Part 2 of this trip, we go to the Social House Vodka Distillery socialhousevod... to see the new tasting room, Pump House 1906, then head over to Chef and the Farmer Restuarant for dinner. www.vivianhowa.... After the full day in Kinston, we do a night flight home.
