An Update From Our KCBAA Scholarship
Recipient
Greetings Mr. Kraemer!
I hope the holidays found you well and were able to enjoy time with
family and friends. I enjoyed some much needed time at home and out
of the classroom.
While on break I was able to progress even further in my aviation
training without the added work load from the classroom. It was a
great pleasure to be able to simply fly without being bogged down
with the stress and distractions from other classes.
I wanted to inform you, with much excitement, that I obtained my
added instrument rating in passing my instrument check ride last
week. In addition to gaining my instrument rating, I was also able
to pass my commercial FAA written examination. Aside from these
advancements in my flying I also achieved a 4.0 GPA for the
semester. The generosity from KCBAA played a pivotal role in
ensuring success throughout the past five months.
I now look onward in my aviation training as I build hours in an
effort to begin my commercial flying. Again I would like to thank
you and the rest of the team at KCBAA. I look forward to another
successful semester!
Blue skies and tailwinds,
Russell Simons
