Today I earned my commercial pilot license!! It’s easy to post the highlight reel of the good times but let me tell you it did not come easy. I’ve spent about two years building time to get here and months of training maneuvers to get to the point of even taking the test. Then when the day came, I failed my oral exam. Then I went back and failed it again. I was discouraged, disappointed in myself, but unwilling to give up. A couple of cancelled exam dates due to weather later and today was the day. I’m so thankful for the community of people around me who fought with me, encouraged me, prayed for me and helped me to see it through. Thank you for not letting me give up on myself and always seeing the best in me. Thank you to all of the world-class instructors at who scrutinized my flying from the right seat to make me a better and more proficient pilot. God is good!
