Just a short while after completing her first solo, Jenna devoted every moment of her free time (and some not-so-free time) to studying and flying. It paid off with a first-time pass of her Private Pilot checkride with Alaska DPE Carol. We are incredibly proud of her achievement. It gives us some big bragging rights, too 😉 Way to go, Jenna!!!

We love helping people achieve their dreams, and flying a taildragger around San Jose with an empty back seat tops our list of very cool things to do. Congrats to Ian and CFI Scott for checking this box off his list. Whoot whoot!

“I remember being interested in airplanes since I was a young kid. My grandpa would take me to UWGG/GOJ and we would watch planes land, taxi and take off. When not at the airport, the aviation would turn my head up with windows-rattling sonic booms coming from silver tips of bright white contrails. As life went on, flying remained just a dream. I want to think that now is a great time to finally live it.” ~Mikhail
