Congratulations to Austin White who is now free to legally roam the friendly skies (below 18,000 feet in VFR conditions)!! Today Austin demonstrated the proficiencies of a private pilot as he maneuvered in the north valleys and easily made his way back into KRNO. Austin is pretty stinkin’ impressive. He came to us from another school after a discovery flight and from start to finish, he was motivated and able to complete his requirements, including ground school and written exam, in 7 weeks and 1 day. Totally out of the norm but it shows it is possible. Austin flew 3-4 days a week while also working full time as a project manager/estimator for a heavy civil construction company. He already has his first certificated pilot flight tomorrow morning to take his wife up and share his love of aviation with her. Awesome job to Austin and his instructor, Levi Mellows!!
