Brennen with his official Pilot Log Book!!
June 9, 2011
During the crazy week we've had, Brennen finished Aviation Camp at Falcon Field. Grandpa Gardner happened to go with Wes to pick up Brennen the last day of camp and Grandpa asked Brennen if he'd like to be a real pilot that day. Brennen said he was a little scared but so excited! Grandpa had him go to a flight lesson and the instructor said Brennen flew 90% on his own. Yes, you read that right! Brennen took off and flew and pretty much landed a plane ON HIS OWN at only 12 years old!!! The instructor said he's a natural and has good pilot instincts of calm under pressure. I just wish we had known ahead of time and had the camera to get him in the cockpit! Wes tried on his cell so w'ell have to see if those worked. This is Brennen when he got back to our house! He was so excited!!! What an amazing adventure thanks to Grandpa!
