Kenny Keller (Helicopter Online Ground School) describes creating a physical "Wall of Fame" in their studio to display member stories, photos and ratings (private, commercial, CFI, instrument). He highlights individual members (John — recent private pilot; Dennis Blackerby — Shelby County Sheriff lieutenant; multiple sheriff’s deputies with memberships), explains Heather will manage outreach and collect updated testimonials/photos/videos, and asks members to submit materials. He also briefly mentions Gary working on a FAA-approved flight-structure/refresher course, and plugs a free copy of his Amazon bestseller Helicopter Trek Ride and the HOGS membership site.
