On this episode I sat with Jared Black a decorated combat pilot for the US Military. Jared flew the coolest plane in the military, the A10 Warthog. Jared comes from a long line of combat pilots. He’s 4th generation to be exact, his family has flown in every major war and his son Gavin was following his dreams to becoming an F22 pilot too. Tragically Gavin lost his life his senior year of high school in a motorcycle collision. 

In honor of Gavin’s life, Jared and Amanda started a charity to give scholarships to high school seniors wanting to pass their pilots license. This is the story of Jared and Gavins life together. I hope you will share this with as many people as you know and click the link below to learn more about Gavin and the charity that stands in his honor.
