Tyler’s Travels: Fly back in time, and help local charities with Fly for Foundations
Tyler Ryan learned the details of the First Fly For Foundations event at CAE
COLUMBIA SC (WOLO) – Col. Rick Mantei, Founder of the Mantei Charitable Fund, is holding his Fly For Foundations event on Saturday August 16 at Eagle Aviation at CAE. Mantei is offering free (totally) rides in a pair of WWII era planes, in hopes that passengers will make a donation to one of the six Foundations he has partnered with.
Tyler Ryan took the Tyler’s Travels Team On the Road to learn more about the event, speak with a few of the Foundations, and spoke with one of the few WWII Veterans around, who flew 35 missions in the Big War.
