Today I am talking with Dave Herwig, a former Army Golden Knight and newly hired regional airline pilot. When Dave was with the Golden Knights he was given the opportunity to skydive over the White House, at multiple professional sporting events, and travel the country to skydive at air shows. In today's episode, we talk about how being stranded on Lake Eire led to his love for aviation and how he took his first flight lesson at age 42.

We also talk about how it only took him 17 days and 40 hours to obtain his private pilot license (PPL) and why he became a Golden Knight. If you enjoyed it, please let me know! I couldn't do this without you guys!
