Cora started her aviation journey in January 2025 when she received a discovery flight for her birthday. She’s always enjoyed flying when we went on vacation, but that discovery flight was just the beginning. Since then she has enrolled in her local aviation school's ground school. When she's not in school she enjoys visiting local air museums, joining aviation groups, and visiting control tower centers in the area. Her ultimate goal is to be a commercial pilot. Right now she is focusing on obtaining her private pilots license.airport

✈️ Balanced school, flying, and family doubts
✈️ Became the youngest member of the Goodrich Flying Club

Greenville, SC
When I started taking aviation classes at Greenville Technical Charter High School, I was originally interested in becoming an aerospace engineer. After going on a Civil Air Patrol Orientation Flight, I discovered my passion for flying. Since that flight, I have tried to get involved with as many aviation organizations as possible. I began volunteering at Triple Tree Aerodrome and AviCom, a simulated flight competition in South Carolina. In Civil Air Patrol, I attended a powered flight academy, where I received my first 10 hours of flight instruction. Later that year, I was accepted into Civil Air Patrol’s Cadet Wings program, which has funded the rest of my training for my private pilot certificate. I recently achieved the Civil Air Patrol’s second-highest cadet rank, Cadet Lieutenant Colonel, and received my private pilot certificate. My goal is to eventually become an airline pilot and fly in the Air National Guard or Air Force Reserve. The best advice I can offer to someone interested in pursuing a career in aviation is to find an organization to take your first flight with and then try to become involved with as many organizations as possible.

🎧 NEW EPISODE — The Headset That Saves Lives
This week on The Future in Flight Podcast, host Shawn Staerker sits down with creators Cooper the Pilot (and Carl Hancock (Fly With The Guys) to talk about the life-saving power inside the Lightspeed Aviation Delta Zulu headset.
Cooper shares how the Lightspeed Delta Zulu caught a dangerous CO leak her airplane’s own sensor missed.
Carl opens up about his TWO near-fatal carbon monoxide emergency—and how this headset’s instant alert very likely saved his life during one of those.
We dig into the safety features pilots should be talking about, why CO monitoring matters more than ever, and how better audio and hearing profiles can change flight training for the next generation.
Speaking of flight training—we hear how Gleim Aviation is helping reduce that cost using technology to create efficiency in ground school learning.
Plus, we recap two MAJOR 2026 announcements from Van's Aircraft.
If you’re a pilot, a student, or you fly with someone who is—this is an episode you’ll want to hear.
