Making flight training affordable through the use of all-electric aircraft
Aviator is a thrilling and unique game that stands out for its simplicity and excitement. The game revolves around a plane’s flight, with players betting on how long the plane will stay in the air before it flies away. The multiplier increases as the plane flies, allowing players to cash out at any time to secure their winnings. The risk is that if the plane flies away before cashing out, all bets are lost. This game requires quick decision-making and offers a blend of strategy and luck, making it a captivating experience. With its straightforward rules and engaging gameplay, Aviator game appeals to a wide audience.

The Sustainable Aviation Project is a public-private collaboration to reduce the cost of flight training through the use of all-electric general aviation airplanes. Our partners include the City of Reedley, City of Mendota, Reedley College, a local flying service, the Fresno Business Council, and the CALSTART San Joaquin Valley Clean Transportation Center.
About
The initial spark for the idea came to Joseph Oldham while nurturing relationships between businesses and government to get zero-emission buses into public transit fleets. A pilot for over 40 years, Oldham approached Richard Duncan, manager of Fresno Chandler Executive Airport, and together they began brainstorming how a network of chargers located up and down the San Joaquin Valley could support the operation of a small fleet of Pipistrel Alpha Electro aircraft for flight training operations. More conversations with other interested parties, long nights writing grant proposals, presentations to various city boards and government groups, and the Sustainable Aviation Project was born!
