SEAL-Doctor-Astronaut Jonny Kim Is Adding Pilot To His Crazy Resume
Howard Altman - Yesterday 6:51 PM
Is there anything Jonny Kim can’t do?
Scratch piloting an airplane from the list of things the Navy SEAL-turned Harvard-trained medical doctor-turned NASA-astronaut hasn’t yet accomplished.
On June 6, Kim took his first solo flight in a Navy T-6 trainer.
“First solo complete!” he announced in a tweet. “An amazing & valuable growth experience. No substitute for pilot-in-command experience. Even had my 1st in-air malfunction to work through.”
What that malfunction was is not immediately known. We reached out to Kim via Twitter and the Chief of Naval Air Training for more information, and once we get it, we will let you know.
