Jakob's Niche

We have this 12-year old who like everything mechanical. In particular, aircraft and muscle cars. While the Toyota and motorcycles may somewhat fill the muscle car void, they certainly are not aircraft. Solution: CAP. That's the Civil Air Patrol. Jake has been envolved in this for several months. For those of you who are unaware of this program, CAP is an axillary of the US Air Force. The program includes training in search and rescue. This includes, by the way, flying in real aircraft.

Jake just earned his first advancement--Airman First Class. How cool is that.
