Episode 19: Rick Cahall - From Sheriff's Office to Regional Pilot

Time in Flight

In this episode, our guest, Rick Cahill who just changed careers into aviation discusses his story from originally being in the Marines, to working at a Sheriff’s Office full time and then deciding to go back to school at age 35 and get not only a 4-year degree in aviation but get all the aviation ratings necessary to get him a job as a regional airline pilot. All this while buying and selling his houses and having children along the way. Rick attended Middle Tennessee State University’s aviation program where he received all his flight training as well as where he was a flight instructor. Rick is a true inspiration of being able to make the switch into aviation at a point a little later in life.
