Listener Mail:
I became a CFI in 2019 and a CFII in 2020.
I wanted to let you know that I found your podcast about 4 years ago around the time when I was considering a career change from a high school math teacher to becoming a Certified Flight Instructor.
I only began flying in 2014, but one of the flight instructors I was working with suggested that I think about becoming a flight instructor. At the time it seemed like an impossible goal, but as you say in your podcast, do something each day to move towards your aviation dreams, and that's just what I did.
I retired from a 30-year high school teaching career in May of 2020, and now I'm a flight instructor working mostly at a Flying Club.
Your podcast has been a source of information and inspiration for me, and I wanted to thank you for your commitment to providing guidance and help to others in the field of aviation.
