Ladies and Gentlemen, he’s done it! After 10 months of on-and-off training, two instructors, 80 hours of flight time and 250 landings, as well as various mishaps, maintenance issues and scheduling delays, Brian received his private pilot’s license yesterday after passing his written, oral and practical exams. Ninety-seven percent on the written, in case you were wondering. No scores are given for the other two, but by way of his flight instructor, we heard that the examiner said Brian was one of the best student pilots he’s ever evaluated.
Brian shows off his "Temporary Airman Certificate." The permanent one will arrive in 2-4 months.

Woo hoo,
