Mondays are for passing checkrides!!

Another young aviator is licensed to fly the skies!! A huge congratulations to 17 year old Andy Xie who sailed through his Private Pilot checkride today in N670CS. Andy is a senior at McQueen and local plane spotter. He took his Discovery Flight just about four months ago and today, can now take that same plane out as a licensed pilot. Talk about focus; he took the TMCC private pilot ground school course last spring then started flying once the semester was over. He has not stopped since. His instructor Emmett Castellan did an incredible job training this remarkable young pilot even with Andy's sometimes hectic school schedule and other responsibilities. Andy will continue his training and earn his advanced rating as he progresses toward his goal of being a career pilot. Awesome job Andy!! We are so happy for you and your success! ​
