Summary
My interest in flying started from my father who is a captain for UPS and grandfather who retired a captain from United Airlines. I Perused my goal to become an airline pilot by graduating with honors from the top aviation program in the word the University Of North Dakota, where I then build my flight time instructing students. I then got hired at SkyWest Airlines flying the CRJ and ERJ where I upgraded to captain as soon as I hit the minimum requirement time.
