CADET PROGRAMS
By Capt Stephen Klinger -- On November 19, 1998 Stephen Radican had the second most exciting day of his young life. Of course the first most exciting was his first solo in the pattern at PVD airport. Steve took his check ride for his Private Pilot Certificate and passed with flying colors (to coin a phrase). Cadet Radican wants to follow in his fathers footsteps as an aviator. His dad is a Captain for American Airlines, flying Airbus A300s on trancontinental flights. Steve will be attending Embry Riddle next September.
It is interesting to note that Steve was given his check ride by the same FAA examiner who gave his father his check ride, back when he was a CAP cadet.
