Preston is now officially an airplane pilot!! Mr. Glider CFI decided to pursue something with power and, despite the cruddy weather, progressed through his training to a successful checkride. We could make a lot of glider jokes but Preston is way too nice to poke fun of :) Preston has not only battled the weather with regard to flying, but also driving. When he wasn’t shoveling off his roof, he was fighting the winter road condition driving in from Truckee. Now that the weather is predicted to get better (in April), Preston will definitely power through his instrument then onto commercial. Having the glider background has been an advantage as a lot of the training, minus power, is similar. Plus, a little wind doesn’t bother him. Awesome job to Preston and his CFI Ryan Mill!
