We are excited to report that on Friday, we learned another 2024 Scholarship Squadron recipient became a private pilot! Congratulations to Kiera Grange on this amazing accomplishment!
Check out what Great Basin Aviation had to say about Kiera.
“She’s beauty, she’s grace, but more importantly, she’s aced her private pilot checkride today! That’s right everyone, the scholarship queen, blondie supreme, and fabulous Kiera Grange is a certified private pilot (oh god help us)! While Kiera Grange seems gentle on the exterior, this woman is secretly a beast (but like in the good way).
From being a recipient of many scholarships including the highly esteemed Reno Air Race Association scholarship, working… I don’t know how many jobs anymore, keeping active by casually racing triathlons…, and flying to her hearts content, Kiera Grange is one miracle of a human. You may be thinking to yourself, ‘Hey, I’ve seen that other fella in the picture before.’ Kiera, being the busy body she is, had to run swiftly off to work this morning and opted for a picture with local DPE extraordinaire, Dave Tranquilla. Look at those smiles! Turns out examiners don’t have fangs like we thought (Just kidding).
Let’s give the illustrious Kiera Grange a huge round of applause on this incredible accomplishment! And we can’t forget Kiera’s lifeline and flight instructor, Nathan Morin, for guiding her along the way towards success! Great work you two! Keep up the amazing work!”
