The MGA Foundation is sending a big thank-you to Marshal Mize, donor and former Air Force pilot, who recently gifted his beloved 1974 Cessna 414 to the University's School of Aviation.
Originally from Tennille, Ga., just over an hour from the Eastman Campus, Mize later moved to Chattanooga to build his business and raise a family. He flew his Cessna for 25 years. When it was time to retire from flying, he granted new purpose to the aircraft by giving aviation students chances to use it for learning purposes.
L–R: Adon Clark, dean of the School of Aviation; Marshal Mize, donor; Nancy White, vice president for Advancement; and Keith Clark, pilot.
