Hello, my name is Tyler Knight and I am a senior at the University of Oklahoma (OU) and hopefully graduating May 2020. I currently pursuing a degree in aviation from OU and hope to find a job in the corporate world of aviation. My plan is for when I graduate from OU is get on with a corporate company or private entity to be able to fly people around in private airplanes. I think the biggest goal out of my hopeful career is get with a company that travels all around the world so that as they are seeing the world so can I.
When looking back at last semester and also looking back at this summer I think there are two things that really stand out to me the most on what I was able to accomplish. The first thing being able to pass my tests and get my instrument rating added onto my pilots license. For anyone that doesn't know the instrument rating is probably one of the most difficult ratings for a beginning pilot to be able to obtain just because of the vast amount of information that you have to consume and then be able to apply that while flying the airplane at the same time. Then the second thing, is this summer when I passed my checkride and tests to get my commercial pilots license, this isn't really are hard course to pass and master but there is a lot stress put onto the student during their commercial course. This simply just because the examiners are being extra cautious in making sure everything is done correctly and also the standards are held to a much higher level than for a beginner pilot. So for a pilot to be able to obtain a commercial license is the best feeling because you have trained so hard and now that you have passed you can finally start using all those hours and hours in the cockpit to actually start making money and begin a journey to your future career.
More about my personal life, I'm not the most active person in the world, I don't really have any hobbies or things that I really try to do. I would say the only thing that really comes close to really being considered a hobby for me is that I love the art of coffee and trying new and upcoming coffee shops here in Oklahoma and else where when I travel to new places. I love anything that has to do food and will pretty much try anything at least once because I like to explore new things; however, if I even see the slightest resemblance of what could possibly be a mushroom you might as well just throw it in the garbage, I'm not sure how anyone likes the taste of mushrooms. When I am home it is usually spent with the two dogs that are in the house we have a husky and german shepherd and man are those two more than I would like to deal with sometimes, especially when school starts back up.
