Very impressive, when most 19 year olds struggle to get insurance on a poxy hatchback, he gets to fly a 737 !

Good on the lad, that must have taken some serious work and dedication, does at any age but to do it at that age, amazing.

Very well done and good luck to the guy. Fair play to his father for encouraging him too.

Hope he has a fantastic career ahead.
Yeah absolutely, who doesn't want their kids to follow in their footsteps and do the best they can?

The prospect of being a pilot's massively appealing but I don't think I have a methodical enough brain. Shame really, I currently live in Ecuador and I'd love to do some Mickey Mouse light aircraft job up in the hills...
I get what you mean but really, you can't be a pilot, in whatever capacity if you think it is mickey mouse in any way, you have to treat that Cessna like a 747, you do have to be methodical, and anal, I am not cut out for it either !
