Jennifer Thomas submitted this photo and note: “So excited for our son, Ryan Thomas, 19, earning his Private Pilot certificate in late October. Ryan is a fourth generation pilot on my side of the family. My husband, Jason, and I are both pilots and instructors, my Dad, Roger Saddler, is a Wright Brothers Master Pilot, and my grandfather, Charles Collins, was a pilot and instructor. Ryan is pictured with the Cessna 172 he learned to fly in and I got my instrument rating in back in 1992.”
