Colin Henderson
CFI, CFII
Colin dreamed of flying since he was 9 years old, but got sidetracked by other life pursuits. After living in Boston for 10 years while getting a degree in Mechanical Engineering and working for a tech startup, Colin decided to move back to Vermont, where he grew up. After getting burned out by the tech world, the thought resurfaced... "I need to fly!" Colin got his Private Pilot Certificate with a small flight school in VT and finished the remainder of his ratings with ATP down in Boston. He loves sharing his passion for flying with others whose eyes are turned to the sky, seeking the freedom of flight. When not in an airplane, Colin spends his time mountain and gravel biking, racing sailboats, and backcountry skiing.
