Brady Ramsey of Viola, Arkansas, has officially soloed! Ramsey's future plans are to fly for a commercial company. When asked about what it was like soloing, Brady said, "It was very nerve-racking, but every time I fly it is so much fun. " His instructor, Kevin Crawford, said, "Brady was a good stick the first time we flew together. He seemed, very early on, to understand how to make the aircraft do what he wanted. I look forward to watching him progress on to his goal of being a commercial pilot. " Brady will be continuing his training with Ozarka's aviation program while pursuing his Associates of Applied Science - Commercial Pilot Degree.

Upon completion of Ozarka's FAA approved Part 141 flight school, students have the opportunity to complete the multi-engine commercial training at Ozarka College.
