With much of his family being from Birmingham, Brendan has always considered himself native to the city. Initially wanting to follow the family footsteps of being in the military, Brendan sought a spot in military aviation. When that option wasn’t available to him he changed to civil aviation and found himself at BFC. Brendan stayed with BFC from student pilot all the way to becoming an instructor and considers it a second home. Brendan is a firm believer in building strong connections between student and instructor and spreading the shared respect for aviation. While Brendan has aspirations for the airlines, he is happy to have the opportunity to fly in any airplane.
