We didn't realize how drastically our lives would change when we each took a discovery flight for the first time. Join us for a unique episode of the Far Aim Podcast, as we - Barb Sutton, Jared Johnson, and Tyler Brunkhorst - take over and share our personal experiences in finding flight schools and taking the first steps towards a thrilling career in aviation. From Barb's grounding experience in the air to Jared's life-changing chance encounter at an airport, we all agree that discovery flights are a must for anyone considering aviation.

As former guests of the show, we discuss the importance of finding an instructor who shares your goals and is invested in your success. Navigating through different flight schools and curricula can be challenging, but it's crucial to find the right fit for your learning style and personal needs. In this episode, we discuss the role of family, career, and other constraints in selecting the right flight school. Discover how Jared eventually found the perfect instructor and how his journey through aviation led him to teach and be part of the community even when he wasn't actively flying.

While pursuing aviation can be both challenging and costly, we explore ways of making it a priority in your life and embracing the opportunities that come with it. Jared shares unforgettable moments from his aviation journey, such as flying side-by-side with an F-18 and hearing a supersonic boom that echoed across multiple states. Listen in as we discuss the various resources, programs, and opportunities available for aspiring pilots, as well as the importance of having a solid foundation in the fundamentals of flight. Get ready to be inspired and let your aviation dreams take flight!
