Farmdale teen becomes Pilot for a Day
Jacob Spithaler, 14, tries out the loadmaster seat of a C-130H Hercules aircraft while Senior Airman Tyler Messina, a loadmaster with the 757th Airlift Squadron, talks about the cargo plane here, Aug. 24, 2016. Spithaler was the 64th honoree of the 910th Airlift Wing’s Pilot for a Day Program in which children with chronic or life-threatening illnesses are welcomed to the station, commissioned as honorary second lieutenants and treated to a day of fun military themed activities. Spithaler later sat in the flight deck of the aircraft while taxiing down the runway. (U.S. Air Force photo/Eric White)
