Another
FAA Written Exam Passed
Daniel Manzani, 16, of Temecula, California, passed his
private pilot written exam on March 20 after completing
Sporty's Next Step online program. Daniel started flying last
summer after taking a Young Eagle flight in late 2008. His
parents aren't pilots but support him and his desire to be a
pilot. He soloed on his 16th birthday and hopes to earn his
private certificate on his 17th birthday this September.
Daniel is learning to fly at French Valley Airport in
Murrieta, California (F70). He is shown with his flight
instructor, Tom Jernascic. |
