Please join us in congratulating our own, Bro. Antrovel Smith Jr. on earning his Private Pilot License (PPL) through Western Michigan University!
Brother Smith is a third-year junior majoring in Aviation Flight Science and has already logged over 100 hours of flight time. Originally from Saginaw, Michigan, the 20-year-old has demonstrated tremendous discipline and dedication in reaching this milestone.
To earn a Private Pilot License in the United States, pilots must complete rigorous FAA requirements, including flight training, written, oral, and practical examinations. While the FAA minimum is 40 flight hours, the national average is closer to 60.
His next step is pursuing his Instrument Rating as he continues his journey in aviation. Congratulations, Brother! ✈️🔥
