Press Coverage:

(June 22, 2007) Teen Takes Flight- The Record-Courier
(Gardnerville/Minden, NV) Calvin Harris was excited to get his license on his birthday, but unlike most 16-year-olds, the license he received on Monday is to fly an airplane. "Calvin's priority has been flying, so he doesn't have a license to drive a car yet - someone needed to drive him to his flight lessons."  He has been training in a Cessna 172 SP, a 180-horsepower, single-prop plane at the Minden-Tahoe Airport with Bill Schroeder, one of four master certified flight instructors in Nevada.
