This is my husband. He's a jet pilot. He flies jets. By himself.
These are his classmates. They think he's pretty cool too.
This is his wife. She thinks his jet flying is pretty sexy...
A congratulatory handshake.
Damnnn boy!
He's a happy fella.
It's tradition to dunk fellow classmates after they complete their solo.
(lucky for Jake it was seventy degrees today)
His horrible wife only caught the splash. But let me assure you. The boy got some air.
Oh he's mad...
and he'll get you.
I'm so proud of him. Seriously. He's worked so hard for this.
There is a ways to go before he graduates from this plane in June,
but I know he'll only continue to progress.
Because he's amazing.
Love you Maverick!
Next up: Instrument Flying. Which is learning to fly
using your instruments only, instead of sight.
