The flight

The people who'll fly with you.

Eli became a flight instructor to build time for the airlines and went on to become chief instructor at a flight school in Anderson.

When that school closed, Eli turned down the airlines to stay home with family and keep teaching the same students, and built Palmetto Sky instead.
