Carl and team, I earned my Flight Instructor – Airplane Certificate on 4 Aug! I am humbled and honored beyond words. Hey, if I can do it with my wife in college, 7 kids, and a full time job, I hope that’s an inspiration to others!
“Do something today to move yourself forward in your career…” Great words! Safe flying!
Joe,
Congratulations on the CFI! That is no small accomplishment with all on your plate! I have always felt that becoming a CFI is by far the certificate that requires some of the hardest effort to accomplish. Celebrate the huge milestone and I’m sure your efforts have surely inspired others!
