David finally wised up!!

I swear they let anyone learn how to fly airplanes…here is another one of those helicopter ATPs thinking he can stroll in here and solo the super complicated C172. We had our doubts but today David Sidorski showed us and soloed N495SP on runway 17L at home base, KRNO!! We could say a lot of complementary things about David like how hard he works, how he loves animals and has befriended his neighborhood racoons, likes to spend more time outdoors than in, spoils his cat, is ripping it up in the hills on his dirtbike, or the fact that he is a safe and proficient pilot. We could say that during his two weeks on/two weeks off rotation from his helicopter job he chooses to come in and progress in his aviation skills rather than relax. But no, we would rather judge him for thinking the grass was greener on the rotorcraft side. Regardless of his past questionable decision making, huge congratulations to David and his team of CFIs including Austin White and Kurtis Hornung!! In all seriousness, David Sidorski is super impressive and is killing it in an airplane :)
