Remember Leif? He’s showed up in a handful of videos. He passed his Private Pilot Checkride! I feel blessed to work with such wonderful and dedicated people. Leif was in my first ever ground school, that was in person here in Homer. That was a few years ago, and he stuck with it, saved up the money, dedicated a ton of time, and showed up ready to work. He got his license in 43ish hours.
Everyone give him a big congrats in the comments!
