All proceeds to the ZaK Quappe Flight Scholarship Fund (ZQFSF)
To date the Fund has managed to train 3 so far – the last one just did his solo flight and should graduate in a couple of weeks!
The ZQFS is a scholarship programme set up to assist young Caymanians in their dreams in becoming pilots by obtaining their Private Pilot License (PPL). The cost to obtain a Private Pilot License is more now than ever before. A large factor in this is fuel cost. The Fund’s goal is to raise $3000 to help contribute toward those costs.
The Fund is named after Zak Quappe who lost his life in a car accident.
Zak was passionate about his love of flying. He helped to train a number of students during his time with the Cayman Flying Club, many of them more than twice his age. That is no ordinary task at the young age of 21. It takes discipline, commitment, and lots of hard work. In his short 21 years he gained almost 400 hours of flight time which is quite an achievement. He was due to be called up to Cayman Airways Express in September 2013 until his unfortunate passing.
