In breaking news from the United States Air Force Academy, it was today announced that future Apple Michael Oliver, nephew of AGFHOF Don Bernitt, has earned and been awarded the distinct honor of becoming an Instructor Pilot in the United States Air Force.
The title of an IP or Instructor Pilot is without question never given,it can only be earned. By virtue of his accomplishment Oliver has proven that he has mastered the skills of flying himself and is now trusted to teach others.
Although not yet confirmed, early reports are that at the age of 18 Oliver may well in fact be the youngest Instructor Pilot in the Air Force. As a Cadet 3rd class (sophomore) at the Air Force Academy, Oliver will take the yoke of his TG-10B glider and begin teaching his fellow cadets the art and skill and flying.
When contacted for comment Oliver said that he would like to thank his dad, Retired Air Force Pilot Kris Oliver, and mom Gail Romayne Oliver for the support and guidance they provided him during his early years of flying.
Oliver's early morning phone interview was then cut short when the power went off and all that could be heard were the shouts of "Emergency, Emergency, everybody get up."
Attempts to reach Oliver again were unsuccessful and it is most likely that he had headed off to soar "Into The Wild Blue Yonder"
As the Apples 2008 Summer Tour continues do not be surprised if one day soon you look into the sky as if you have just heard from above...... How bout them Apples
