Three months ago, I started my first job as a commercial airline pilot for Republic Airways. This week, I had one of the most memorable flights of my career thus far and it will always be one of my most memorable flights. I got to fly with my dad (Rodney Koch) for the first time as an airline pilot. My dad has been a Captain for Republic Airways for many years and I got to join him from the right seat today. Thank you dad for all your help and support to get me to this point and to be sitting beside you in the flight deck. Thank you Leadership In Flight Training Academy (LIFT) for providing me with the resources and training to get to the point.
