He is pictured with Jon Carnie, Journey Air Flight Instructor (JourneyAir.com). This accomplishment caps of a year’s hard work where Bradd, on top of his regular class load at university, attended weekly ground school at Journey Air and was also scheduled for fight lessons three times a week. He returns next year to complete the requirements of the Commercial Pilot Licence, while attending his second year at the University of Windsor. The pilot program launched in September 2013 with just four students, and the frst full class begins September 2014. Photo courtesy of Mike Jones/Journey Air.
