This is an amazing accomplishment, and I am likewise proud of this young man, now being 38 myself, and being a life long commercial aviator myself now for 18 years, I’m at rank of Sr. Captain or (Check Airman) on a Bombardier Global 7500 business jet, I have been to all 50 states, and 131 foreign countries, flown 7,898 flight hours so believe me when I say that this story is very special to me, because I relate to this story very deeply! But people back home didn’t support me in my endeavor, nope they surly did not!! I came from a family of NO aviators at all, they said “I was crazy for thinking I could do that” so I left my crusty little town in Kentucky and proved them wrong, but that still isn’t good enough for them, nope it isn’t! To half of them they still think I’m crazy, now that I succeeded in something, they feel that I feel I’m better then them, and would love nothing more than to see me fail, at what I’m doing to still prove them right in the end! However… the other half thinks I’m a fake, they say “he’s not a real aviator, he’s just faking those pictures and videos, he can’t really fly an airplane, he never could, and he never will! So it really warms my heart to see this young man get the support he deserves, and the love he deserves, because that is something I’ll never have no matter how successful I ever become! You go young man, my hate is off to you my friend!
Congratutlations and happy landings.
