Shane is a private pilot!!

Sam- I mean… Shane Smith (inside joke) is officially a Private Pilot!! Shane is easily one of the coolest pilots behind the flight deck. With his classic, slick hair and pearly white smile, the mere glimpse of this guy screams “pilot”, but now he finally has the license to prove it! With temperatures picking up this afternoon, it wasn’t enough to stop this calm and collected pilot as he brought N495SP back to KRNO with victory as he heard the words “you passed”! You can find Shane with his nose in a book or his mouth full of sushi when he’s not greasing his landings and studying for hours on end. Shane has an amazing support system, composed of his family, friends, and girlfriend, all of which he’s incredibly excited to share the gift of flight with. Congratulations to Shane and his instructor Ethan Chinowsky on this incredible achievement! Now don’t rest for too long, let’s get that instrument rating and don’t forget to close the door…
