Introduction to the sky…
Kyle is fourteen years old and today marked a very special day.
No, it’s not his birthday. Today marks the day that Kyle was properly introduced to the big, blue sky up above.
Kyle became my fifth Young Eagle today when he and his father joined me for a fun flight over nearby Canyon Lake. Just moments after lift off, Kyle commented on how much fun he was having. He was seeing his familiar world from an unfamiliar perspective. I captured an image of him in the backseat of the Skyhawk early in the flight and wow…look at that smile.
A smile that reaffirms what I know so well. Becoming a pilot was a dream come true for me…but having the privilege of being the person to introduce someone else to the sky…
Magic.

You’re doing your part to keep General Aviation ‘positively’ in the public eye … one family at a time. Keepin’ flying Justin. Kyle indeed has a genuine smile.

The last I heard from Robbie, Kyle is now saying that HE wants to learn to fly!! I’d say you definitely had a positive impact on our young friend!!
