What a wrap-up to a great few days in San Diego at Envision Flight hosted by King Schools. Participants had the opportunity to tour King Schools and I was able to work on a video with John King himself. These pictures are from the very place where all their videos have been produced over the past 34+ years. Really fun for a person involved in aviation education!
Another great day at Envision Flight in San Diego! Always cool to get to hang out with John & Martha King! Thank you for signing my book!
Getting a chance to participate at Envision Flight with King Schools! John & Martha King will be doing a book signing later today with a few very cool signs behind them!
Wally and I couldn't coordinate schedules again this year, but we sent a bunch of shirts to give away. Hopefully, you crossed paths with our friend AJ and scored a shirt or a sticker! See you next year!!!
Enjoyed a great breakfast with John & Martha King this morning. The stories were great, the business dialog was informative, and we all had a few good laughs! Thanks, John & Martha for taking time out of your weekend to spend it with me and Tammie!
Throwback to April 2004 when Jerome Brown took his very first discovery flight. Little did he know that this experience would ignite a lifelong passion for aviation! ✨
Fast forward to today, when Jerome would fly a similar flight and recreate the photo. All of this has been done at United Flight Systems.
Now, Jerome has the incredible opportunity to pass on his knowledge and passion for aviation to aspiring pilots. As a CFI, Jerome loves to help others discover the thrill and freedom of flying, just as he did all those years ago.
To all the dreamers out there, never stop reaching for the sky! ✨ Whether it's a discovery flight, a career change, or pursuing a lifelong passion, you never know where your journey might lead you.
Buckle up and get ready to soar with Jerome! 🚀✈️

You can’t fly every day (well I guess you can, but I took a day off)! But even when I don’t fly, I still REMOVE BEFORE FLIGHT!!!

This week's episode is one that every person should listen to! Matt Cole was in an aircraft accident in 2001 where a Piper Seneca crashed and left him with burns on over 65% of his body. A decade and 70 surgeries later he earned his certificates back, 2 years later he was able to reinstate his instructor ratings, and 3 years after that he started a flight school. An AMAZING story!!!
Happy Thanksgiving to all of our listeners! Enjoy your day no matter where you are or what you are doing, and thanks for listening! If you can get in the air, fly safely and stay behind the prop!
