Ian with his flight instructor, Mickey Holton, and the Citabria taildragger (3 March 2012) |
Last Saturday, after a long oral exam and practical flight test, Ian received his private pilot power license at 17 years and 3 months. We are so proud of his accomplishment.
(This is a good time to ask him for a scenic flight in the area...
Ian can fly but he cannot charge.)
Go to Skywatch Friday for some really cool sky pics.

What a huge accomplishment, at 17 or any age!! Congratulations.
Congratulations to Ian! That is impressive. Now he will need to get a very good job to pay for the hours of flying time.
