My wife, the pilot.

Kristin's ten year dream has been to get paid to fly.
Here's a few pictures of her first day at the new job with Frontier Flying.


Five AM. Time to fly the donuts.


It's a big plane! And they let women fly these things?!?!


Checking the oil. Seriously.


You dont have to be tall to be a pilot.


Looking for that 7th Fetzer valve. I think it's the bypass line personally.


I dont think they're suppose to go up until you're in the air...


Kristin sits on the right, the lazier pilot on the left. Looks complicated.


Everyone else sits here.


AvGas. Don't leave the tarmac without it.

It looks like they're taking off, but not quite. (3 MB)


Either something was broken, or one of them had to pee and was too lazy to walk.


"Seven Six Zulu, you're cleared for take off"


On her way to Galena, and piloting history.


My wife's a pilot!
