District VIII’s newest Associate Vice President (AVP) is Jonny Falgout. He started flying at age 10 and has never stopped.

He has a turbine waiver and flies everything from sport airplanes to warbirds and drones.

He serves as an AMA contest director, is a member of ARCC, RAMS, and the Aeromodelers of Acadiana (AOA) clubs where he has been a safety officer, vice president, and is currently the president of the AOA club. He is a genuine guy, will work with you, and you can always count on him as a friend. He is another standout member in District VIII.
