New Pilot

Congrats to Brandon! (Kitfox Aircraft Wing Shop Super)

Brandon started with us here at Kitfox May 2012. He always had the dream to learn to fly.. and that dream became a reality yesterday is less than stellar weather. So our wing man has WINGS !!

All his training has been with Stick & Rudder Aviation in the Kitfox S-LSA Tail-dragger operating out of the Boise Class "C". Originally set out to get his Sport Pilot License and decided during his training to continue on to the Private. Total time 49.5 hours.... :)

Congrats Brandon. :) It's a great accomplishment. Nice you went for the "full Monty" and got your private pilot license. It's a bigger commitment but worth it.
I'm a little jealous though you learning to fly in those sexy Kitfoxs.
All I had in the early '80's' was well worn Cherokees and Traumahawks.

Keep up the great work in the wing shop "Wing Man". I'm guessing that will be your call sign from now on. ;)

Thanks everyone for the kind words! I am pretty stoked!!! I have a great job and now I can fly the best airplane out there....and you're right, in some of the best country!

A special thank you to John and Debra for always making yourself available for my questions and making sure I can operate an airplane safely.

Giant thank you to Paul Leadabrand of Stick and Rudder! Paul runs a first class training operation and always keeps it interesting and still creates teaching moments. It was GREAT learning in the Kitfox!

Really looking forward to the Fly-In next weekend....watch for me behind the stick! Woo hoooo!!!!
