Able Flight “Graduate” Creates Own Flight School

[maddog52]

Less than a week after becoming the second scholarship winner to earn his pilot’s certificate, Sean O’Donnell of Philadelphia was negotiating the purchase of a specially-adapted Sky Arrow, the same aircraft model used during his training. That was during EAA AirVenture 2007 in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, the site of Sean’s month-long training that led to him passing his checkride on the opening day of aviation’s largest event.​

Kate knew about that. She should comment when she gets back from watching "Mythbusters."

Kate, ya made such a huge difference in some lives within your short time in aviation, I hope you're proud of that. Very few will accomplish as much in their entire lifetime.

I thought he was taking delivery of his plane already. He said he was going to base it at Wings but I haven't see the Sky Arrow there I've been looking for it though.

He's getting his primary instructor checked out in the coming week and will have the aircraft permanently at Wings field the following week.
