Instructor: Mitchell Templeton

“My grandfather was a fighter pilot and I’ve been enamored by aviation since I can remember. I never seriously considered becoming a pilot before a casual intro flight during Christmas of last year. That flight sparked my interest in flying myself for the freedom and fun it provides. It was definitely a challenging 2020, but thanks to everyone at Aerodynamic, and particularly Mitchell, it was a very rewarding journey.” ~Dima
