One of the special parts of teaching in the floatplane is connecting with some outstanding aviators and their families. Andrew and I have spent the week together while he discovers the pure joy of flying floats. He is an Army pilot with a wonderful family who supports his decision to serve our country despite the many challenges. We were able to meet up with them during our training so they could see what Dad was up to. I hope he knows how blessed we are to have Andrew and his buddies doing the often thankless and occasionally dangerous work required. It is an honor to be a small part of their aviation journey.
