Awesome! I'm happy to see young bucks with a passion for flying. But wowza! Glider, single engine, and multi engine? That's impressive for a teen. Good find Paul. Thanks! Cool

I read an article in EAA's Sport Aviation magazine about a 16yr old that currently has the record for number of planes soloed in 1 day. He did it in I think 13+ including a T-6 and P-51, his dad owns some restoration facility.

There are young people wanting to fly, its just the cost stops us. We have to pay for college!

But this is promising news in regards to helping people fly:
