Saturday solo! Congratulations to Patrick O'Brien for soloing at Stead (KRTS), runway 32. Patrick works full time and can only fly a couple days a week but is super motivated to get his PPL then start his advanced training. He soloed at 17 hours!!

The solo flight is an exhilarating, exciting, nerve racking and a downright amazing experience from which Rob and David walked away feeling accomplished and awesome.

Best 16th Birthday Present!

9/9/2018

One of the best presents is the gift of flight. 16 year old Jackson got that today! His dad surprised him with a Discovery Flight in N2291C with Dane for his birthday. They flew out east and even circled their house so his mom and siblings could look up and see them. Dad hopped in the back seat and got to go too. Definitely a memorable 16th birthday! 🎉
