Default Our first one leaves the nest!

We've taken lots of folks flying since we opened the hotel in 2002, and
we've helped to influence several of them to take flight lessons. Some
have even reached solo...

But Antoinette Pinault is our first true, full-blown, certificated
pilot! She passed her checkride yesterday, in less than ideal
conditions, 3 years (or so) after that first airplane ride with us.
The fact that she's a woman is even MORE gratifying, given how few
active women pilots there are in the world.

I'd post her email, so that y'all could congratulate her, but I'm
afraid the Spambots would have a field day with her addy. So, if you
want to do some congratulating, do it here, and I'll forward them on to
her!

Congratulations to Antoinette and thanks to Jay for knowingly and
wantonly spreading the aviation virus.
