Kevin Jerde is Instrument Rated!!

Let’s give a huge round of applause to Kevin Jerde for earning his instrument rating today! From the Everglades to the Sierra Nevada, Kevin has traded gators in the Everglades for the stunning views of the Sierra Nevada. With his newly polished instrument skills, he’s ready to take on the clouds with confidence and precision. Kevin’s path to this milestone is as impressive as it is varied. From serving in the military to battling fires and solving tech challenges, Kevin has tackled every endeavor with the same grit and determination he’s brought to aviation. A heartfelt thank-you goes to his instructor, Ryan Mill, who helped guide Kevin through the rigorous training required by instrument flying and ensured every procedure, approach, and checklist was mastered. Once again, congratulations Kevin, we are so happy to share this achievement with you and can’t wait to see what you’ll do next. Awesome work Kevin and Ryan! Time to take a nap ;)​
