Congratulations to Davin Salonek!
Davin comes from a hardworking family of five and has been inspired by aviation from a young age. He attends Buffalo High School, where he's learned the value of discipline, perseverance, and goal setting—qualities that serve him well both in the classroom and in the cockpit.
Flying isn’t just a goal for Davin—it’s a true passion. He is seriously considering joining the military to serve his country while continuing to grow as a pilot.
We’re proud to support his next steps and can’t wait to see what his future holds.
