This is what it’s all about! ✈️

Today, Grace took her grandad as her very first passenger.

As Grace put it:

“Grandad has been the first person I’ve called after every lesson—good or bad—and he’s been my biggest cheerleader throughout this whole journey. So it was only right that he got first dibs on a flight!” ✈️

Moments like these are what aviation is all about.
