This is a long shot, but I want to put the power of social media and federation to the test.
My son wants to become a commercial airline pilot when he’s grown up. It would be awesome if we could find a commercial pilot in the fediverse that we can follow and ask questions of.
If everyone who reads this could boost it, it would be much appreciated and it would mean the world to my son if he could get in touch with a real-life commercial pilot! ✈️
Hello @alan ,
I am not (yet) a professional pilot, but grew up on small airfields. So I can help with the first steps into a glider of the local flying clubs. This is easier than you think and already possible at the age of 14 (in Germany).
You are welcome to follow me here. If there is any question, don't hestitate to ask me.
My grandfather was a passionate glider pilot and later in his life he added the Light Sports Aircraft class on top.
After finishing my studies I joined my local flying club and am currently training for the PPL(A) license. the plan is to extend this afterwards to a CPL(A) and start the flight instructor training.
I fly multiple planes.
Diamond HK36 & DA20
Maule MX-7
Arcus M
DG-1000T
Grob G 103
So it's a mix of multiple aircrafts. SEPs and Gliders 
The picture was taken on board of a DA20, 5 minutes after departure in the climb phase.
