MORE ABOUT YOUR HOST
Trevon Hunt Thornton is a 26 year veteran of the U.S. Air Force and Air National Guard. He has been flying for 24 years! Many of his initial instructor pilots back in 1990 when he learned to fly were U.S. Air Force Pilots. Trevon has a very extensive technical and mechanical background in aviation, complements of and taught by our United States Air Force. He will tell you that he has enjoyed “almost” every minute of it which is why he has done it for 26 years. Trevon has a pilot designation from the FAA that is called the ATP, which stands for Airline Transport Pilot, (The ATP is the PhD equivalent of flying). Trevon also has several “Jet” ratings on his license which allows him to fly jets and he has Two "Flight Instructor" designations from the FAA. One is referred to as the CFI-A and the other is the CFII. The first one is the initial license granting the authority to teach people to fly in normal weather conditions. The second designation extends that authority to teaching people to fly in what is referred to as "Instrument" conditions which is nice way of saying "Bad Weather". Teaching involves communication with people and certain flair and passion for showing and instructing others how to do something, Trevon absolutely has this passion and enjoys meeting people from all walks of life.
