As children many of us looked skyward in awe of airplanes. Many of those seeing this video, already pilots, eventually achieved the dream of getting in the air. For others, the dream was always there but not quite realized… yet.

Aviators have an altruistic desire to fan the flying flame. That is, the internal desire to fly. While we share, encourage, coach and mentor, we let those who want to fly, or have interest, choose their own path.
