“My grandfather is one of my life mentors and some of my best memories growing up are of listening to his stories about flying an A-20 during WWII and the Korean War.  For me, it has always been a life goal to become a pilot and to share that skill with my grandfather.  Before he passed last March, I was able to tell him that I had begun training to become a Pilot.  I’m excited to have gotten to this milestone and my wife and I are starting to plan out where we will fly after my training is finished.” ~Matt
