Success Story
Nathaniel Warmuth
When I was 9 years old I attended a Young Eagles Day in Grass Valley, California. That flight ignited a dream in me that I would someday be a pilot. I continued to fly with the Young Eagles annually while I worked to earn money to start my journey in aviation.

“In 2014 I attended the EAA Flight Academy summer camp in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. This was the pivotal point in my dream becoming a reality. My goal was to fly before I could drive. I began flight lessons at NorCal Flight Center in Lincoln in July 2015 and in February 2016, I took my first solo flight. I am continuing to work toward my ultimate goal of receiving my ATP certificate. I also plan to use my experiences as a young pilot to inspire other young people to pursue their dreams in aviation.”
