You’ll see pilots and airline personnel sharing their love of aviation with kids all the time. And at least once, a kid did them a solid by improving their training manual. Our Byron Reed caught up with that preschooler from Arvada.
You’re on the tips of the wings. Traveling by plane takes you on a journey. Because they get you from place to place a lot faster than a car does. For five-year-old William Hines, I love flying. It’s a mode of transportation that hits home. I don’t have to walk 7,000 miles.
William is a pre-kindergarten student at Campbell Early Learning Center with a passion for flight. That shows them how many degrees the engine is. He’s very mechanically inclined. So, I suppose it was a natural progression to want to know about more fascinating things.
Amber Hines is William’s mom. She says his passion took off thanks to a connection with a Southwest Airlines pilot who brought William a company training manual and sat with him for two hours going over the charts and just talking shop with him. But William noticed something was a little off.
I discovered that two train monitors did not match. They did not match at all. That is closer up and that’s further up. I had no idea that one of our friends had started a job with Southwest Airlines, but she said, “Can I pass these along to my manager?” And I said, “You know, sure, that’s fine.”
That’s when the CEO of the Airlines found out, then invited William and his family to Dallas for a VIP tour. So, we went down to headquarters. It was amazing. Everyone there was very, very welcoming and, um, we definitely had the tour of a lifetime.
I got to go in a simulator and the simulator pilot was crashing. showing how close. It’s an experience this family will always remember. That heats up the cockpit. Because of William’s attention to detail, that might land him in a career he already loves.
Then I can support people to a place. For next. Like 140 people. I’m Byron Reed.
