​Flight Deck Announcement – Great Basin 737 to Career Altitude!
Good morning, passengers, this is your captain speaking. We’re cruising at a celebratory altitude today because Shon Plamondon just earned his commercial pilot certificate! That’s right, he’s cleared to fly for hire… which means his flying is now FAA-certified and invoice-worthy. Shon’s journey has had its share of laughs, lessons, and… questionable life choices, like losing a bet and ending up with a tattoo on his backside (no, we’re not showing you). He’s also developed a healthy respect for turbulence and for Jenn’s “motivational yelling”, both of which seem to keep him sharp. All jokes aside, Shon has put in the work and flown through the challenges to get here. We’re proud of his growth, his determination, and his ability to make every checkride prep just a little more entertaining. A huge shoutout to CFI Cory Kleidosty, who expertly navigated the left seat alongside Shon and made sure everything stayed on heading. Congratulations, Shon, next stop: wherever the aviation winds take you. Now sit back, relax, and enjoy the view… from the paid pilot side.
