## Resource

We continue our series of a day in the life with a guest that has a LOT of unique experience in the aviation world and someone who can answer questions about how to become a pilot with help from the Military. Ricky Skinner, from Positive Rate Aviation, is a podcast host, Air Force member, CFI and future Airline Pilot. Ricky was nice enough to join me and answer a ton of helpful questions about how students can do what he did and become a pilot through the military.
