Three generations of Stevens pilots

Grant did his first solo on his 16th birthday (the youngest age you can legally do so)

 

 First Solo Takeoff!

 

 

 

 

 

First solo landing!

Battling 15 -20 knot winds made the approach difficult!

 

 

 

Grant’s CFI Kellen Martin clipped Grant’s tail feathers!

 

America’s Youngest Pilot!

 

 

 

 

 

After the airplane solo, it was time for the automobile solo!

We went to the DMV and he passed his drivers test on the first attempt.

He even passed the parallel parking (I didn’t)

  We celebrated with green naked women at Conan’s Pizza!

 

 

Chopper tries to eat the birthday cake

 

We went to Ichiko to eat pork bellies. Yum!

 

 

 

 

 

Grant’s 2nd solo:  Flying over Granger Lake.  A boat waved at him (since he was practically water skiing with them) so he waved back

 

 

 

Easter at Boulevardiers in Dallas

 

While we were in Dallas, we made a pilgrimage to Dealy Plaza and the grassy knoll.

30 seconds later about 100 Japanese tourists came and frolicked on the knoll.  They did the same thing at Pearl Harbor when I was there.

I was hoping for a special magic bullet that would blow brains into him instead of out of him!
