Evan

For the longest time I’ve always known I wanted to be a pilot. Growing up I kept myself busy with toy airplanes, helicopters, airshows, whatever little 5 year old me could do to be near aviation. I began my flying career in 2020 where I got my pilots license before moving off to college to continue my flight training for more advanced ratings while also obtaining a degree related to aviation. During my flight training experience in college I learned a lot about what I wanted to be as a pilot. It was during this experience that I decided I wanted to be able to share that joy of aviation with others by giving them their first taste of flight and being able to guide them through their journey to becoming a pilot. My absolute favorite thing in aviation is getting to see the joy on people’s faces when they leave the ground for the very first time, and by their own control no less.
