Tad J. Gease is at the University of Wisconsin in Platteville. His planned major is Mechanical Engineering and Aerospace Engineering. Tad is a keen model aviator who has athletic interests as well. Softball, Jukado, tennis, and volleyball help keep him fit. Cross-country and downhill skiing, plus deer hunting, also gets him outdoors.
He has built several model aircraft, including a .40 –size Trainair, a Gentle Lady, and a Simplex Trainer. He was very active in his club before going off to university. His duties included mowing the field, running a refreshment stand at the annual mall show, and helping beginners.
At the University, he continues to fly and has been coaching newcomers to the sport. He would like to get a private pilot’s license and has already received some instruction for that purpose.
