This is a really good initiative, I wish I would have been one of those students.
How are there no comments for this positive story? Bravo St. Lucia.

@Ben..,,..the Character Shock & Horror is out in the pasture
Bravo applause to this initiative – the explanations to the various questions were articulated clearly. It was great that the students had an opportunity to see first hand and explore the aircraft. Godspeed
Too bad this wasn’t public knowledge…it would have been a real pleasure to see that tank of a plane an meet some of these brave souls who risk it all for the rest of us!. Thank you
@105smhp, it would have been a nice sight for sure.
Looking to see if the island can stand a manipulated storm like the rest of the world eg dubai
