Review for Able Flight, Chapel Hill, NC, USA
Shortly after my paralysis, I never believed I would fulfill my lifelong dream of flying. As a quadriplegic, I have limited hand function and no movement in my legs. I had often thought about ways to overcome this challenge, but I never imagined there would be an organization dedicated to making this dream a reality. Able Flight has given me an amazing gift, and I feel greatly in debt for everything they have done. It was a pleasure to work with my instructor Matt. His willingness to adjust his teaching techniques in order to overcome the difficulties for my particular limitations makes him a perfect instructor for Able Flight. The whole Hansen group really made me feel like I was part of the family. I am still in awe that there are people like those at Able Flight, who are willing to give so much of themselves to help others fulfill their dreams.
